Auntie Edna's Snufflers

11/01/2024

I literally woke up thinking of a few more enrichment ideas - who loves you and your pets? Auntie Edna does!

There are always the balls and mats, but also:
*interactive feeders (some which are great for raw feeders too)
*food (and when I say food, I'm including kibble and treats here) in an empty egg carton
*the shell game where you hide food under a container and they have to sniff it out
*Licky mats, available in many pet stores and online
*Adventure boxes (thanks to Justice for Bullies for this idea) where you place food in egg cartons, smaller boxes, toys, etc., in a larger box and have them sniff
*Toilet paper and paper towel rolls lined up in a box (first saw this through Whiskers & Wags Pet Services) and toss a bit of food inside, or fold the ends up with a treat inside
*Wrapping paper twisted up with food inside

See where I'm going with this? It doesn't have to be expensive and it's in your home right now! And sure, some of these ideas are going to make a mess, but isn't it worth the 5 minute clean up to watch your dog enjoy something new that enriches them and works their brain?

If you live somewhere warm, can I come live with you? I want to be somewhere that doesn't make my face hurt when I go outside :s

Get those snuffle balls and mats out, it's SOOOOO COOOLLLDD outside! My dog uses a snuffle ball with dehydrated raw for breakfast, and a frozen Toppl treat dispenser for her dinner with lots of yummy extras.

If you don't have your mat or ball yet (I can help with that 😉), here are a few other enrichment ideas...treat dispenser with a bit of peanut butter or coconut oil, a wobble toy, a few minutes of training disbursed throughout the day, hide & seek with you, treats or kibble in a blanket or towel hidden in the house for a good sniffing adventure! What are your favourite enrichment ideas?

Hello Snufflers!

Auntie Edna's donates a portion of December sales to a different charity every year. It is extremely hard deciding as so many are in need 😪.

We are splitting between 2 charities this year, 2 legged and 4 legged. We are supporting the Distress Centre Calgary and Ruff Start Rescue Society . The Distress Centre offers 24/7 support to those suffering from the struggles they face that they can no longer face alone, or have no where to turn for support. Ruff Start is one of the many animal rescue societies, and they promote positive reinforcement, as we do.

Please donate to wherever your heart goes this year, be it monetarily, your time, bottle drives, whatever. It's never been so important ♡

The top Snuffle ball is 3 years old and deserving of a refresh! I use it along with one other for my dog's breakfast every day. It takes her a good 15-20 minutes to finish

Miss Stella still rocking her snuffle ball! Snufflers can be a good alternative to a rather chilly walk for some of our pets.

Christmas orders are coming in 😳 How is one this organized?!

Snufflers make a great Christmas present for friends and family with pets! They are especially helpful during the busy holiday season with extra visitors, changing schedules, and when the temps really drop and no one, I mean NO ONE, is interested in a walk at -25!

Auntie Edna's ships worldwide 🌐

Making a snuffle mat while I get my vehicle serviced, good use of time, don't you think 😉?

Head's up! There will be no deliveries this coming weekend as my dog and I will be attending our first Barnhunt trial in Lacombe! If you are in the vicinity, come on down and watch - they welcome spectators
