Ensuring the security of your home and providing top-notch care for your pet are fundamental to everything we do at Praline’s Backyard. Here’s how we manage secure access to your home:
1. Lockbox Safety: We ask that you keep one key in a lockbox on your property. You choose the most secure and convenient spot for it—this could be anywhere around your home but doesn’t need to hang directly on your door. We provide the lockbox free of charge during our initial canine enrichment assessment/meet and greet.
2. Digital Entry: If your home is equipped with an electronic lock, we request that you assign a unique code specifically for our use. This ensures that we can safely access your home while maintaining the integrity of your security settings.
3. Gated Community Access: For homes within gated communities, please provide a gate card, remote, or specific access codes. This will ensure seamless entry and exit, preventing any disruptions to your pet’s care schedule.
At Praline’s Backyard, your peace of mind is paramount. We’re committed to respecting your privacy and safeguarding your home while providing your pets with the loving care they deserve.
Canine enrichment means giving your dog fun things to do that make them happy and keep their brain busy. It can be playing games, solving puzzles, sniffing around, or learning new tricks. These activities help your dog stay healthy, smart, and less bored!
Your dog can do lots of fun activities, like:
These activities keep your dog happy, smart, and full of energy!
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.
Fear Free’s mission is to prevent and alleviate fear, anxiety, and stress in pets by inspiring and educating the people who care for them.
