The Warrensburg Dog Nerd

Lick mats, Kong toys, and any sort of frozen food based enrichment has a ton of uses! From helping a dog regulate their nervous system to providing us humans with a few moments of peace, but it doesn't have to be the same boring peanut butter!

Here is a short list of dog safe foods that can be used as frozen enrichment. Try out different combinations to see what your dog likes!

My dogs love blended tuna and sardines (only packaged in water) as a frozen treat! It does stink up the freezer though so fair warning 😐.

I like to prepare a bunch of frozen enrichment at the beginning of the week so it's ready whenever I need it. It's been a total game changer!

Congratulations Misty! 🐾

Misty is an adolescent Golden Retriever / Lab mix who started working with me months ago to work on arousal regulation, polite greetings, engagement, leash skills, and recall.

Her owners have put in the work 💪 and she has made immense progress! They have everything they need to set her up for success moving forward, which means Misty is transitioning from regular sessions to sessions as needed!

I'm so proud of Misty and her family. ❤️ It has been a pleasure to watch their relationship strengthen as Misty matures and learns new skills!
