Why enrichment?

Enrichment is what your dog actually wants to do. Enrichment activities give your dog an outlet for expressing natural behaviours. 

In other words, simply ‘be more dog’!

This is crucial for their overall wellbeing. 

Enrichment is a foundation for animal welfare and can help resolve a number of ‘undesirable’ behaviours which often stem from boredom and frustration. 

So instead of trying to ‘fix’ chewing, digging, excess energy etc, we can do simple activities with our dog to provide safe and appropriate opportunities to fulfil these behavioural needs. 

The main purpose of the deck is to be a resource to learn more about our dogs and help us give them what they need. 

When a dog has plenty of enrichment in their life, they are calmermore balanced and fulfilled and less ‘desperate’ to find their kicks elsewhere!

The benefits of brain games for dogs

Positive experiences boost your dog's emotional wellbeing.

Activities create opportunities for your dog to problem-solve & make their own decisions.

  • #1 Calmness

    Providing mental stimulation & cognitive problem-solving helps to balance out excess physical energy and satisfy even the most active minds.

     

    By consistently fulfilling our dog's needs, we instil a sense of calmness and contentment. 

     

    Excitable breeds (such as spaniels) and those with a high prey drive (still looking at you spaniels) may benefit from reducing arousal levels - the 'Calm' category is particularly useful for switching the cycle of choas to a cycle of calm!

     

    You can implement the 'Calm' category cards as a decompression routine, such as post-walk, or to help create calm time in stimulating environments.

  • #2 Confidence

    Confidence is huge for behaviour.

     

    Dogs find games engaging; they love to play and are individuals in their own right. Therefore, they learn best through fun, positive experiences.

     

    Playing, solving puzzles, having fun and 'winning' can be hugely rewarding and beneficial to a dog’s self-esteem.

     

    Why not channel your dog's energy into activities they can thrive on, such as scent games!

     

    Activities in the 'Puzzle', 'Play' & 'Focus' categories can be helpful for boosting your dog's confidence.

  • #3 Connection

    While enrichment can mean self-occupying activities, we can't forget that what our dog's crave is our attention.

     

    Games give you fun ways to interact with your dog and are the perfect way spend quality time together.

     

    Playing games will also help you to learn about what motivates your individual dog so that you can get on the same page.

     

    Activities in the 'Bond' category help to build trust and physical handling, while games in the 'Play' category make you a source of fun and can enhance your relationship, improving your training results.

As supported by the RSPCA and used by multiple dog welfare organisations.

The deck is used by numerous dog welfare organisations to provide varied enrichment to dogs within their care and support owners with their new dog.

The games help you learn what your dog finds engaging and encourages you to work with them in a way they find rewarding. 

Common behavioural concerns such as lack of calmness, destruction and inappropriate greetings can often be resolved through fulfilling a dog’s enrichment needs.

What started as a passion project with my own spaniel has now given me a greater mission – to help owners understand dogs better so less end up being brought in for rehoming. 

Always seek the help of a behaviourist when needed.

Hours of fun for you and your dog!

The cards are well written and produced. They come in a sturdy box accompanied by an explanation booklet. They are thoughtfully packed and dispatched.
Chloe presents her products in a friendly, approachable manner and this transfers into the explanations on the cards and in the booklet. Most activities are usable with any breed but Chloe always recommends that fun is the top priority and when the fun stops, so does the activity. It was interesting to read that such small inputs of time and effort can produce massive results within you and your furry friends! Activities are easy to do so it’s a win, win situation for me.
I also bought the slow feeder plait and so far, so good! Chloe’s good advice to always monitor your dog when using the plait was so important. It took a few attempts before my GSD realised she didn’t have to chew the plait to release the food!🤦‍♀️An added extra is that it seems to be cleaning her front teeth now!🤷‍♀️
The only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is that it’s early days yet.

Etsy Review

This is my sixth time buying this deck. I always end up, lending them out to clients and friends, who end up keeping them. These cards make it super easy to come up with enrichment ideas for any dog, and I have used them for other species as well. I love using the categories to align with the type of day my dog is having. The instructions are easy to follow, and the art of the cards is absolutely beautiful. I cannot recommend this enough to any dog owner, looking for a way of easily including enrichment into their daily routine.
