In this episode, we dive into what truly makes enrichment meaningful for dogs. It’s not just about keeping them busy—it’s about meeting their mental, emotional, and physical needs in a thoughtful way. We explore how to go beyond squeaky toys and food puzzles to create activities that align with your dog’s instincts, personality, and breed traits. Whether you’re a pet parent or a trainer, this episode will help you understand how to strike the right balance in the “enrichment equation” to support a more fulfilled and well-behaved dog.
