Enrichment makes feeding fun and stimulates your dog!
You can get dedicated puzzle toys for these activities, like the Kong Wobbler, or you can create your own with cardboard boxes, tubes and old towels.

Dogs do what works, so always reward positive choices! ✨
Maya helped stooge during the session so that little Scoobert could increase his confidence around dogs 🐕
