Enrichment Add Ons
Workindoggz’ is an enrichment based program for dogs in daycare. 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?
Our enrichment activities are 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 can help 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. ​
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!
Treadmill
Our treadmill sessions offer a great way for dogs to get focused, low-impact exercise in a safe and controlled environment. It's perfect for burning off energy, building endurance, and supporting a healthy weight - especially on days when outdoor hikes aren't ideal. Treadmill time also helps boost confidence and provides mental stimulation as dogs learn to stay balanced and follow a steady pace.
It's a fun and effective enrichment activity tailored to your dog's individual needs.
