Everyone loves an Easter Egg Hunt! Your dog will too.
We have an Easter Egg-stravaganza in store! I’ve hatched a plan to help your dogs egg-cel in the most fun thing to do at this time of the year – Easter Egg Hunts! Everyone can get involved so don’t be a chicken, let’s get cracking! Would you like me to stop now? Don’t you like my egg-cellent jokes? Ok I’ll stop, I’ll stop.
There are egg-stra (sorry, I have a problem) fun craft projects too.
These games can be played indoors or out depending on the weather. There are so many benefits to sniffing; it lowers heart rate, taps into the seeking and reward system, and can help create calmer behaviour in dogs that have lots of energy – not to mention forging a stronger partnership between you.
In this mini course we’re highlighting a Beginners’ Guide to Search Games and the Linear Search. Search games are so rewarding for our dogs that really, we should be providing opportunities for them to use their noses every single day.
So let’s commence this egg hunt adventure, focusing on our dogs’ favourite senses – smell and taste.
