Boredom Busters: 5 Enrichment Toys for Your Dog

Whether you need a way to occupy your pup while you knock out some chores or are looking for some at-camp canine entertainment, enrichment toys are a great way to mentally and physically stimulate your number one adventure buddy.

Enrichment toys come in many forms, but all of them will engage your dog’s senses in some way. While some are built like a puzzle and encourage your pup to problem solve, others motivate dogs to use their natural instincts to forage or sniff for treats.

From interactive puzzle toys to psychedelic slow feeders, explore some of our enrichment toys to keep your canine engaged.
