Mental exercising can also help to slow down the process of onset memory loss and dementia. It helps to create new neural connections in the brain and protects existing nerve cells from deterioration.
Play the Game

Simple brain games can be played in a small space such as a garden or a house. For example, hide pieces of your dog’s most loved treat in different areas around the home (or outside if it’s warm enough) and let them go hunting for it.
These brain games can be played for a few minutes at a time. They provide your dog with an enjoyable mental workout while you are training them. This helps them learn faster and keep mentally sharp. This can also help them improve their ability to concentrate on commands and strengthen their connection to their owner.
Treats
