Introducing a major breakthrough in caring for your pet dog

We know how busy you are with work and family. With everything you have going on every day it can be tough to give your four-legged
family members the attention and exercise they need. But to live a more fulfilled life your dog also needs lots of environmental enrichment that helps satisfy both their physical and psychological needs. Tough to fit in to your already full schedule. But we can help you solve this with our newest program.

What is Enrichment?

Enrichment allows animals to demonstrate their species-typical behavior, gives them the opportunity to exercise control or choice over their environment, and enhances their well-being. Enrichment is just as essential to animal welfare as proper nutrition and veterinary care.

The key to a happy and healthy dog is regular enrichment and allowing them to engage in their innate behaviors, such as playing, chasing, smelling, chewing and scavenging. Encouraging dogs to engage in these behaviors allows them to be physically, emotionally and mentally satisfied. Dogs who don’t receive stimulation tend to find ways to enrich themselves, resulting in unwanted and unpopular behaviors!

Why Provide Enrichment

Providing enrichment can enhance the environment for an animal, encouraging them to explore and interact with their surroundings. 

Enrichment improves and enhances your dog's mental state using a range of activities designed to challenge and exercise their brains. These activities encourage your dog to problem solve, learn new skills and become more confident. Most importantly, they love it!

 Types of Enrichment

1. Passive enrichment provides sensory stimulation but no direct contact or control. This type of enrichment is commonly used for its potential to benefit several animals simultaneously as well as requiring limited direct animal contact.
2. Active enrichment often requires the animal to perform some sort of physical activity as well as direct interaction with the enrichment object. Active enrichment items can temporarily reduce stereotypic behaviors as their beneficial effects are usually limited to short periods of active use.

How Does It Work?

We assess the following areas

• Your pet in terms of their skills, preferences, breed, and exercise requirements.
• The home environment includes space, location, safety, and enrichment opportunities.
• You, the guardian. Your goals, needs and time availability

Then, we prepare a unique and personalized plan for you and your pet. We offer support to implement the plan and monitor its effectiveness.
