Enrichment Workshop - Sun., May 11

Service Description

What is Canine Enrichment? Canine enrichment is the practice of engaging your dog’s natural instincts—like sniffing, foraging, problem-solving, and playing—to meet their mental, emotional, and physical needs. It goes beyond the walk around the block, offering purposeful activities that improve behavior, reduce stress, and help dogs thrive. Why It Matters: A well-enriched dog is a happy dog. Providing outlets for your dog’s natural behaviors helps reduce boredom-related issues like barking, chewing, and restlessness. Enrichment also builds confidence and creates more opportunities for positive, cooperative interactions between you and your dog. What You’ll Get: Each one-hour workshop offers hands-on experience, creative ideas, and take-home tips to keep your dog engaged and satisfied at home. Upcoming Workshop Topics: ● Scent Work for Pet Dogs – Tap into your dog’s incredible nose with fun and easy scent games. ● DIY Enrichment Toys – Learn how to create affordable, homemade enrichment puzzles using items you already have. ● Agility for Fun – A playful introduction to agility-style obstacles that builds your dog’s confidence, focus, and body awareness through fun, low-pressure activities. ● Canine Fitness Foundations – A fun, low-impact workshop that boosts your dog’s strength, balance, and body awareness using simple exercises and positive reinforcement. Perfect for dogs of all ages and activity levels, these workshops are a great way to add variety, fun, and learning to your dog’s routine.
