Dog Enrichment
Enrichment engages your dog in activities that stimulate them mentally, physically and socially to meet their natural behavioural needs, leaving them happier, calmer and with fewer behaviour problems. Activities for your dog don't need to cost the earth, and the examples in this book use everyday household items to enrich your dog's life through choice, problem solving and breed-specific behaviour outlets.
The games range from easy to hard, ensuring that every dog is challenged at their appropriate level, and there are plenty of options depending on how much time you have, making sure that everyone is a winner. This book is about getting everyone involved, whether they have two legs or four, to build and maintain a happy family.
