Dog Enrichment

Enrichment activities for dogs refer to a variety of activities, exercises and experiences that stimulate a dog’s physical, mental and emotional well-being. These activities can include physical exercise, mental stimulation, socialization and training, as well as providing opportunities for play, exploration and problem-solving.

Enrichment activities we provide include things like reinforcement obedience training, agility training, scent work, puzzle toys and interactive feeders. The type of enrichment activities that your dog can participate in will depend on their individual abilities, interests, and needs.


The frequency of enrichment activities will depend on your dog’s individual needs and interests. Some dogs may enjoy and benefit from daily enrichment activities, while others may only need a few enrichment activities per week.

Absolutely! Many enrichment activities can be done at home with the right equipment, training, and guidance. However, some activities like swimming, hiking, or certain specialized trainings may be better done in a controlled or supervised environment.

Enrichment activities can help tire a dog out, but the degree of tiredness will vary depending on the individual dog and the activity. For example, a game of fetch in the backyard may tire out a high energy dog but not have the same effect on a senior dog.

Enrichment activities can provide mental stimulation, which can help dogs to develop their problem-solving skills, memory and learning abilities. However, it can make them more confident, relaxed, and well-behaved as well as preventing behavioral issues caused by boredom or under-stimulation.
