So, as promised, the next in this little series of blog ideas that can work even without Google traffic—because people save, share, and try this stuff.
What this is
A helpful site that teaches simple, low-cost enrichment games and healthy treats for dogs and cats. Think: snuffle boxes, puzzle hacks, rainy-day energy burns, quick frozen treats, and calm-down routines—always with safety notes and supervision reminders.
Why this is a good idea
-
Pet owners want fast, safe, indoor ideas—especially in small spaces and bad weather.
-
Materials are cheap (cardboard, paper, silicone trays), so readers actually try them and come back.
-
“Make it now” projects = high save rate, shares, and repeat visits.
Why Pinterest helps
-
Clear, step-by-step pins get saved all year.
-
Boards double as checklists (games, treat recipes, gear).
-
One post → multiple pins: quick how-to, printable card, before/after, product list.
