Enrichment Product Recommendations
We have a DIY Enrichment page where you’ll find ways to make enriching games and toys, but here is where I’m sharing my absolute favorite products. There are a few you can find on etsy pages, and I fully encourage you to do a search for “Canine Enrichment” on facebook, pinterest, instagram, etc. and follow that tag. Meanwhile, I absolutely LOVE all the stuff listed below!
Everything KONG! They’re durable and engaging. Dogs LOVE them!
Kong Wobbler
Kong Classic
Kong Gyro
All Things Outward Hound! There are a ton of different types of puzzles and games offered by OH!
West Paw! So many good things to love about this brand. And there’s a guarantee!
JW Hol-Ee Roller - one of my go-to’s for all! There are so many ways you can use this…from stuffing with fleece squares for unstuffers, to putting a toy or a dental chew inside for them to work it out, and so much more! You can do a search on YouTube for JW Hol-Ee Roller and find a ton of different ideas
Snufflemats and Snuffleballs - a MUST for all my doggo parents! Make your own, OR:
Use a Soggy Doggy mat or similar (easy wash!)
Seek Etsy! Just a few…
Busy Noses (my fave)
Flirt Poles for Dogs - this lure can be fun for all! You can find them at most places that sell snufflemats, but here are a few
Lickimat - Licking helps sooth/releases endorphins
Gorilla Wood - Some dogs just love to chew on wood. This is a safe option!
Beef Cheek Rolls - or buffalo cheek. These are similar to rawhide in all the good ways but none of the bad. They’re cured differently and last a LONG time. Your dog can only get small pieces at a time.
Whimzees Dental Chews - made with potato starch and vegetable glycerine, these are my favorite chews and the dogs seem to prefer them to others similar.
Check back often, because I will be adding to this list regularly!
