Besides food, rewarding your pet can involve various non-food items and activities that they find enjoyable. Positive reinforcement can include extra playtime, favorite toys, petting, or verbal praise. For training or good behavior, you might use a special toy only available during these times, engaging in a preferred game, or providing more one-on-one attention. These rewards can strengthen your bond and offer mental stimulation without the risk of overfeeding. Tailoring these rewards to your pet’s unique preferences can make training sessions more effective and enjoyable for both of you.
