Why Enrichment Beats Exercise

A puppy that has worked for its food is tired in a way a walk does not achieve. Fifteen minutes of problem solving settles a dog for hours, and it channels the chewing and digging instincts into something you chose rather than something you did not.

What We Stock

Puzzle feeders

Dog IQ puzzle feeders at around $31 and the puzzle toy feeder at around $31. Food is hidden behind sliders and lids the dog has to work out.

Slow feeder bowls

The puzzle slow feeder at around $34 and the interactive licking plate at around $51. These turn a ninety second meal into fifteen minutes, which helps fast eaters and bloat prone breeds.

Food dispensers

The interactive slow feeder and dispenser at around $44, which releases food as the dog moves it.

Seasonal

The Christmas tree puzzle bowl at around $42, same mechanism with a seasonal shape.

Matching the Difficulty

Start easier than you think. A puzzle a puppy cannot solve gets abandoned, and once abandoned it is hard to reintroduce. When your dog empties one in under a minute, move up. Supervise anything new for the first few sessions, especially with a determined chewer.

Using Meals Rather Than Treats

Feed the daily ration through the puzzles rather than adding treats on top. You get the enrichment without the weight gain, and a puppy that eats this way is far less likely to guard a bowl.
