Title: “What You Need.” Text lists:
• Observation skills: notice what your dog seeks out or avoids.
• Enrichment tools: sniffing opportunities, safe chew items, puzzle feeders, digging or shredding stations, social play, and rest zones.
• Time and flexibility: enrichment is a lifestyle, not a task list.
Photos of a snuffle mat, chew stick, egg carton, puzzle feeder, and dog bed illustrate examples.
