Not only will he be able to go potty  to reduce the chance of an accident but you two will get to spend some  quality time together. You might want to throw the ball and include some playtime in your walk to tire him out so he can relax while you are at work.<\/li>\n<li>Toys \u2013 Introducing a new toy while you he is home alone can add some excitement to your dog\u2019s life. A chew toy that your <em><strong>dog<\/strong> <\/em>has to work out while you\u2019re gone is the best. Try hiding toys for a few days and reintroducing it to him as well. Toys such as a Kong or food cube will encourage  your dog to stay active while trying to work at getting the treat out of  the toy. Even the laziest of <em><strong>dogs<\/strong><\/em> may not be able to resist a toy that gives them yummy treats when they play with it.<\/li>\n<li>Water \u2013 Making sure your dog has enough water while you are gone is  extremely important. A dog fountain provides a constant supply of clean  fresh water and many <em><strong>dogs<\/strong> <\/em>love the diversion that a fountain can create.<\/li>\n<li>Sound \u2013 When you are out, leave on a CD or tune the radio to a clear station and let it play while you are out. This will not only feel like he isn\u2019t alone but the noise will  keep him company as well.<\/li>\n<li>Comfortable Bed \u2013 Create a comfortable place for your <em><strong>dog<\/strong> <\/em>to  relax. He will most likely want to snooze while you are away and making  his spot inviting and comfortable will help keep him a good boy while  he\u2019s along.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We all have to work and sometimes our dogs have to get left at home while we are away.
