Dogs are problem-solvers by nature. Enrichment activities (puzzle toys, sniffing games, training) keep their brains engaged and prevent boredom, which can lead to anxiety or destructive behavior.

Chewing, licking, sniffing, and foraging are calming, natural behaviors. Enrichment helps dogs self-soothe, especially those dealing with change, confinement, or past traumaโcommon in rescue and shelter dogs.

Many โbad behaviorsโ (chewing furniture, barking, digging) come from unmet needs. Enrichment provides an appropriate outlet, reducing frustration and unwanted behaviors.

Successfully solving puzzles or learning new skills boosts a dogโs confidence. This is especially important for shy, fearful, or newly adopted dogs.

Engaging with your dog through enrichment builds trust and communication, deepening your relationship.
โจ For rescue dogs especially: Enrichment helps them decompress, learn that the world is safe, and adjust to home life at their own pace.
