low-cost enrichment ideas for shelters
Life in a shelter is stressful for dogs, even at the most humane shelters. A variety of enrichment activities can enhance the quality of dogs’ lives while they are at the shelter. Enrichment reduces stress and anxiety and, in turn, promotes adoptability.
Fortunately, providing daily enrichment doesn’t require a lot of money or resources. As you’ll see in this video, everyday recyclable items such as egg cartons and drink cartons can be transformed into fun and engaging food puzzles that provide hours of fun!
For more low-cost, high-value enrichment ideas, as well as other tips to improve the lives of the dogs in your care, check out KPA’s Shelter Training & Enrichment course!
