If you have an active dog, try this enrichment hack!

Training Tip Tuesday! Our dog trainer, Kaylee, is here to share a helpful tip for you to try at home:
1. Fill a paper bag with treats.
2. Crumple up the bag.
3. Have your dog sit and look at you, then release them to do whatever they want with the bag.

This enrichment activity will help satisfy your dog's instinctual drives to shred and destroy, providing them with a healthy outlet instead of seeking out other things.
