Hi Partiers! 🥳
Our August Enrichment and Events Calendar is available for you to take a look at. We have some new and exciting events for your Partier to take part in. Enrichments are fairly new at the Playhouse, we we are super excited to incorporate these new and exciting activities into your pets routine.
Why Enrichment Activities Are Beneficial For Dogs:
Dogs weren’t made to lounge all day receiving rubs and treats. While this is a nice delight for dogs who love companionship, dogs were made to be active. This could mean hunting, herding, or numerous other kinds of work that dogs enjoy. They need both mental and physical stimulation in order to feel properly looked after. Otherwise, they may act out; chewing on table legs, destroying their toys, or barking all day long.
Know The Signs:
Dogs lacking enrichment will also tend to act out. These destructive behaviors could be towards their own possessions or general household belongings. Repetitive barking for no reason is also common. More advanced symptoms revolve around their mental state. With this in mind, dogs lacking enrichment may present as depressed or agitated.
