Let’s talk DIY enrichment! This was a requested topic and I thought with today’s dreary weather that it’d be the perfect time to get some ideas for Friday night indoor activities for your pup!

- Jersey is demonstrating one of her FAVOURITE DIY enrichment games and all you need is a towel and some treats (or your dog’s kibble if they work well for that). Simply lay a towel or dishcloth out flat, sprinkle the treats on it and then roll it up tight like a sausage. From there, tie the towel into as many knots as you’d like and let them work! NOTE: if your dog is prone to shredding or eating fabric items, please supervise them to make sure they actually untie the towel instead of just eating everything.

- Hide and seek. This can be used with treats or a favourite toy. Place your dog in the bathroom/crate/another room with someone restraining them if their stay command is unreliable. Hide treats around the house (taking care to avoid breakables) or place their toy in a single hiding spot and then release them. Sniffing is amazing for their brain and this is one of the games that tires Jersey out as she searches the rooms multiple times to make sure she’s found everything.

- DIY snuffle box. With the holidays right around the corner I’m sure we all have some extra Amazon boxes laying around. Fill a box with any leftover material you have (old paper bag shreds, clean rags, tissue paper, etc) and then sprinkle treats/kibble inside to get them sniffing through for the treats. Snuffle mats are expensive but this only requires your scrap materials and is great for their brains!

- TRAINING! While training your dog should be a daily occurrence, take the rainy day to work on something fun and learn a new trick to impress your friends! Jersey’s favourite working game is helping with the laundry (bringing me the clothes from the basket) and it serves a dual purpose for me. I get my chores done and she gets trained!

Looking to see if there would be ay interest in calendars! These would be 12-month, coiled calendars featuring some of the cutest pets in Kent County. They would be priced at $30 and would be available for pickup once they have been printed! Let me know if you would be interested and if there is enough I will finalize the design and take orders to be printed!

Example shown is NOT the finished product and will be subject to change, just wanted a mockup to visualize :)

Jersey loves her dock diving sessions at PJs Canine Club! Labrador Retrievers were bred to spend long, cold days tirelessly retrieving ducks out of ponds and wetlands for their owners so her genetics definitely shine through in the pool! While she may only be retrieving a bumper, this is still an appropriate activity to fulfill her needs and it is important for us to meet the needs of our specific dogs for their mental and physical well-being. Dog sports are a super fun way to try something new with your dog, meet new people and satisfy their needs. Sporting breeds (retrievers, spaniels, pointers, setters, etc) of course love to play fetch but they also love to use their nose as they would do finding a dead bird in thick marsh grass. Jersey loves to compete in rat hunting trials as well where using her nose is the only objective! Scent work (which can be done at home and can be as easy as playing hide and seek with treats), hunt trials, lure coursing, and tracking are all options to get their nose working. Other dogs like herding breeds (collies, cattle dogs, shepherds, etc) are super intelligent, VERY high energy as they were bred to work cattle and/or sheep all day long. Exercise is very rarely enough for them (especially not just a leash walk around the block) and they need positive outlets for their drive. Agility, FastCAT, disc, and flyball are all great sport options for these fast paced, quick thinking dogs but scent work, rat sports and trick training are great options for mental stimulation. Remember; tiring out their minds is more important than trying to tire out their bodies! There are MANY other sports out there to suit every dog. Canicross, bikejoring and scootering are “pulling” sports, suitable for huskies or any breed that wants to pull weight behind them! Protection sports (IGP), obedience sports (rally, heelwork, etc) are also other options, obedience in particular is a very breed-friendly sport for any type of dog that has a willingnes
