Dog Enrichment
Scent games, chews and brain work for dogs of every energy level.
Dogs explore the world through their noses and need chances to sniff, forage and think, not only to walk. This section collects scent games, chewing ideas and brain work suited to puppies, adult dogs and seniors with different energy levels. It answers questions about setting up nose work at home, choosing calm activities for rainy days and adapting games for dogs who move more slowly.
To get started, try the scent games for dogs at home; for older companions, see enrichment for senior dogs with less mobility. Keep sessions short and easy at first, supervise chewing, and check with your vet before adding new activities if your dog has health or mobility concerns.
