Different forms of enrichment, including sensory enrichment, are vital to the well-being of a dog and The Scent Den in Toronto makes it easy to stimulate a dog's sense of sight, sound, smell, taste and touch.
Wholesome Canine recently opened The Scent Den as a safe and comfortable space at the back of its shop to mentally stimulate dogs by encouraging natural, instinctive behaviors such as sniffing, exploring and investigating. The indoor space is filled with plenty of interests and entertainment for dogs that ultimately promote a sense of calm and confidence.
The Scent Den is open to one dog at a time for 45 minutes and is ideal for all dogs, especially ones that tend to be nervous, anxious or fearful, as well as others that are elderly or in the process of recovering from surgery.
