How to make a cardboard destruction box

Dogs are expert foragers - how many times does your dog pick up discarded food on a walk? Or lick up any dropped food around the dinning table?

Scent games are a great way to mentally stimulate your dog and it doesn't have to cost a lot of money. You can use your dog's dry food and use this method at mealtimes or pop a few treats in as a quick snack to keep them entertained during the day.


"...the act of working for and seeking out food is not only satisfying for dogs, it is a fundamental need."

In this video, I demonstrate how I use cardboard to enrich Meg's day with items that I would normally throw in the recycling. What scent games do you play with your dog? Share a video or photo and tag me on Instagram @scentsationaldogs
