A thinking dog

Many people are looking for what will give them a well behaved and calm dog in the house.
There is a simple solution, make your dog think!
What do you need to do to have a thinking dog, anything that will cause them to use brain power.
Rather than just playing fetch, make the dog sit and wait. Hide the toy in an easy to find place. This will allow the dog the think as well as exercise.

Have you ever been to a all day seminar or lecture for work?
At the end of the day you are exhausted but haven't done any more than use your brain.
Brain power causes a chemical change which relax the body.

Now think of a marathon runner. What do they do to increase their ability to run longer distances, they run. Exercising our dogs is very important for their health and happiness. But exercise builds energy. So, walking or running your dog will only physically tire it for short period of time.
Now put thought power into place and you will have a calm dog.
Utilize your commands more frequently. To sit for any length of time requires the dog to focus it's energies into a single command and creates brain power.
A calm dog is a thinking dog, so make your dog think and you will both be happier.
