It is still important to give them their daily playtime to avoid anxious or bored behaviors.<\/p>\n<p>So what types of toys are best for the medium player? We recommend trying out rope toys that encourage a variety of games. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hartz.com\/en-ca\/product\/hartz-tuff-stuff-retriever\/\">The Hartz\u00ae Tuff Stuff\u00ae Retriever\u2122<\/a> can be thrown for a game of fetch, or used to play an invigorating game of tug. It allows the dog to choose what they want they want to play. And with its highly durable, twisted ropes it is sure to last a long time.<\/p>\n<p>Balls can keep any dog interested in play, and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hartz.com\/product\/hartz-dura-play-ball-large\/\">Hartz\u00ae Dura Play\u00ae Ball Large<\/a> is a great option because it is made to last. The Dura Play\u00ae Ball is made with soft latex and guaranteed to last longer than a canister of tennis balls.<\/p>\n<p>Lastly, nylon chewing toys and rawhides provide great stimulation for medium players. Make sure to pick out a chew that fits the size of your dog. You want to make sure it is not small enough that they can\u0089\u00db\u00aat finish it in one sitting, but big enough that it will last more than one day.<\/p>\n<p>Medium players are great dogs to have around. They are playful and curious, and with the right amount of daily exercise their energy can be easily controlled.<\/p>\n<script language='javascript' type='text\/javascript'>function getWR360PopupSkin(){return 'light_clean';}<\/script>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After an hour or so of play they are usually wiped out and may possibly remain calm for the rest of the day.
