[quote=Anonymous]There's a Canine Enrichment group on Facebook that has lots of ideas. One thing that I've learned is that scent work is very enriching/stimulating/tiring for most dogs. I would guess it is even more so for a hound. For it to be effective, she needs to be able to experience new areas. You can drop small treats or kibble in the grass for her to sniff out and find. Or you can take her on walks where she is allowed to smell and linger. I don't really know about the urban aspect vs. a natural aspect, but maybe this could be achieved at a park? Have you tried a flirt pole? That might be a good way to get her energy out indoors. My dog loves it--there's something about the motion of the flirt pole that I think simulates the look of how prey moves.[/quote]
