5 DIY enrichment toys for your pooch

If your pooch seems bored at home, why not try making one of these DIY enrichment toys for them?
These toys are a great way to keep our furry friends mentally stimulated and will help decrease the likelihood of them developing behavioural issues.
Please take into account your dog's age and chewing style before deciding if one of these toys is suitable for your pup. And for our wonderful volunteer Puppy Raisers caring for a Guide Dog Puppy in Training, please check with your Puppy Development Advisor as enrichment toy rules vary between states.

I do not have a guide dog, but I love the pupsicle stick!

I just made "sniff roll and crunch" and my dog really enjoyed it. Other treat dispensing toys are usually too easy and fall out all at once, or too difficult and my dog looses interest. This is a great middle ground because she can easily smell the treat and feel it through the towel when she noses at it- so it keeps her engaged. But she's never interacted with her towel much so unrolling it is an entirely new skill for her to figure out. Thank you!

This is by far THE BEST video on homemade enrichment activities which are creative, upcycles and relatively cheap. I have literally paused the video and done the one with the bottle and toilet paper. My puppy is loving it! Thank you so much, Mel. You did a brilliant job. This video deserves far more views and likes. ♥

Thank you for these ideas. Made the jar for my Guide Dog Callum.He went from a 30 second feed to 15 minutes. He loves it. Now working on model two for him as he’s worked it out too fast.

I've also put some kibble to soak and will do the ice lolly with it.
