As a Veterinary Behavior Technician, understanding and providing enrichment is a crucial part of my day. Sensory enrichment is used to enhance and improve the quality of a dog’s life by engaging their physical senses. Providing mental, physical, and environmental enrichment can improve any domesticated animal’s overall well-being.
Enrichment also helps pets find appropriate outlets for their innate behaviors and physical activity. Enrichment can also be used as an outlet to alleviate tension or alleviate any fear, stress, or anxiety the pet may be feeling.
This article will give three different examples of how sensory enrichment can be used and provided in every pet (dog or cat).
