The #1 most common mistake I see with dog owners is ...
... they don't give their dog enough enrichment during the day
Today I used:
A frozen turkey 🦃 neck to chew
@westpaw toppl for a frozen 🧊 lick
@vitalessentials treats rolled 🗞️ up in a dish towel to sniff out
@wholefoods paper bag ♻️ for a destroying game
Enrichment should be an important part of your dog's daily dose of mental simulation!

✨Welcome to the Primed Pack Nico✨
A 10 month old Labradoodle who is his mom's sidekick!
We are working on a basics refresher course for this big puppy.
Today he was showing us a positive association to his name while playing the NAME GAME and a display of willpower waiting for his owner to release from his SIT with a release word.
Way to go Nico!

CRUNCH 💥 sound up!
Chewing is a decompression outlet that all dogs need throughout their day. A good 20-30 minutes of chewing after a stimulating activity or before crate time allows your dog to self-soothe and calm their bodies.
This prevents overstimulation and anxiety.
If you have a teething puppy, give them a chew or some frozen produce to help soothe them.
Anything dehydrated works best as it's one simple ingredient and usually a tasty meat (beef trachea, chicken neck, fish skin).
