Here are five fun and creative indoor activities you can do with your energetic dog:

1. **Indoor Agility Course**: Create a mini agility course using household items like chairs,
broomsticks, cushions, and cardboard boxes. Teach your dog to jump over obstacles, weave between
objects, and navigate through tunnels. This not only provides physical exercise but also mental
stimulation as your dog learns new commands and maneuvers.

2. **Hide and Seek**: Hide treats or favorite toys around the house and encourage your dog to find
them using their sense of smell. Start with easy hiding spots and gradually increase the difficulty level
to keep your dog engaged and challenged. You can also hide yourself and call your dog to find you,
which adds an extra level of fun to the game.

3. **Interactive Puzzle Toys**: Invest in interactive puzzle toys designed for dogs. These toys typically
involve hiding treats inside compartments or requiring your dog to solve a puzzle to access the
treats. It keeps your dog mentally stimulated and entertained, especially if they have a strong food
drive.

4. **Tug-of-War**: Engage in a game of tug-of-war with your dog using a sturdy rope toy or a tug toy
specifically designed for this purpose. Tug-of-war is a great way to release pent-up energy and
provide physical exercise for your dog. Just make sure to establish ground rules and teach your dog to
release the toy on command to prevent any unwanted behavior.

5. **DIY Indoor Fetch**: If you have a long hallway or a spacious room, you can play fetch indoors
using soft toys or lightweight balls. Start with short throws and gradually increase the distance as
your dog gets more comfortable. Be mindful of your surroundings and choose an area free of fragile
objects to avoid accidents.

Remember to always supervise your dog during playtime and ensure that the activities are safe and
suitable for their age, size, and energy level. With a little creativity and patience, you can provide
your energetic dog with plenty of indoor entertainment and exercise.
