Workindoggz’ is an enrichment based program for dogs in daycare. (replacing open play with “enrichment"?)  Enrichment activities greatly enhance your dog’s experience with us - while also creating positive changes at home and strengthening the bond between you and your dog. 

 

We incorporate enrichment activities into our daily daycare and boarding routine and in addition have add-on activities to provide your dog with one to one or group enrichment experiences. 


We are always looking for ways to increase our staff's knowledge, enhance the experience for the dogs, and improve our service to you. Our enrichment program supports all of these goals. It’s designed to offer more than just a safe space to play - it creates an environment where your dog’s overall well-being is our top priority.

What is enrichment, and why is it so important?

Enrichment is a series of activities designed to stimulate your dog’s mind, body, and senses. 

It’s much more than just fun and games - it’s about engaging their natural instincts, encouraging problem-solving, and helps prevent boredom. Whether it’s through interactive toys, scent work, puzzle games, or social interactions, enrichment provides a meaningful outlet for your dog’s energy and curiosity, while building confidence and lowering anxiousness

Scent Games

​Scent games tap into your dog’s natural sniffing instincts by encouraging them to use their nose to find hidden treats, toys, or scents. These games provide mental stimulation, help reduce stress, and boost your dog’s confidence. Scent work also supports calm behavior and builds focus.  â€‹

Texture Time

Texture Time is a specialized enrichment activity where dogs are gently guided over a variety of pet-safe surfaces—such as soft foam, rubber mats, bumpy pads, or crinkly textures—using positive reinforcement. This slow-paced, intentional activity provides mental stimulation, helps dogs build confidence, and improves body awareness, fitness, and balance.

Agility

Agility is fun, fast-paced activities where dogs navigate through obstacle courses that include jumps, tunnels, weave poles, and more. It’s a great form of physical and mental exercise.

 

Agility builds your dog’s confidence, improves focus and listening skills, and strengthens the bond between you and your dog. It also helps burn energy, supports coordination, and encourages problem-solving—all while having a blast!

Workindoggz strives to create a positive experience for our campers and their families. We are proud to treat our pack like family. For this reason we have a screening process for our daycare and hiking services to ensure we're the best fit for your pet. After submitting an inquiry request, if your pup seems like good fit we will reach out to schedule a meet and greet. The process can take an estimated 2-3 weeks. 

Hiking requirements

It's important to us that your furry camper is comfortable, safe and healthy through our hike. For hiking we require a few things:

  • Up to date vaccines including DHPP, Rabies, and Bordetella. Influenza is highly recommended along with current flea, tick and heart worm medication.

  • A meet and greet at daycare is required for fixed dogs and intact dogs under 8 months old. Free meet and greets are by appointment only.

  • All hiking dogs are taken out with provided secure collars and leashes. If your pup requires a different method for health reasons, please contact us to discuss options.

For more questions, please reach out and we would be happy to answer any questions or concerns!
