Animal Welfare Professionals

Hi all!

We're looking to expand our overnight enrichment options for the dogs in our shelter. Our goal is to keep them engaged and comforted during after-hours when staff aren't in the building.

We've had good success with lick mats, Kongs, and frozen treats, but we've noticed that some dogs end up with diarrhea, likely from the multiple rich treats on top of their dinner. We're now trying to focus on lower-calorie or non-food-based enrichment, especially for overnight use.

We're really interested in new ideas or routines that work well in your shelter (especially if you're working with sensitive stomachs or stressed dogs).

We'd love to hear:

• What non-food enrichment ideas do your dogs enjoy?

• How do you keep things fresh without upsetting their stomachs?

• Any overnight routines or calming techniques that help reduce stress?

Thanks in advance! We appreciate your creativity and wisdom 💛
