Common Scents – canine enrichment
Common Scents is an innovative and unique canine enrichment practice for the local dog community in the Arun area. We are proud to offer ‘something different’ with enrichment and sensory experiences designed individually for your dog. Our passion to enrich the lives of dogs stems from continued worldwide learning with some of the most experienced and respected tutors, to help us reach our goal … making dogs happy.
This is a small, secure, dedicated area where your dog can simply ‘be a dog’ and follow natural behaviours exploring an environment designed just for them; be it investigating items that have been carefully chosen to appeal to their senses, foraging for hidden treats, and simply experiencing different textures underfoot gives them a stimulating mental and physical workout thus enhancing their well-being. It is also your chance to sit back and relax and just enjoy being with your dog.
The Secret Dog Garden for Puppies
This experience is a huge benefit to your puppy’s socialisation, as it is not all about meeting new people and dogs. Exploring different sights, smells, sounds and textures, whilst feeling safe and secure in a 1-2-1 environment with the comfort of their human is really beneficial to a young dog who is discovering his or her new world. The set up is different for puppies, and session times are shorter as as they will tire more quickly as they are still developing both physically and mentally.
Common Scents canine enrichment practice is run by Lisa Edwards who has studied at Brinsbury College (Canine Care and Management) as well as completing various companion animal training programmes whilst working for the RSPCA. Lisa is also qualified in ‘Canine Communication’ and ‘Scentwork Enrichment’, and has completed a comprehensive range of training programmes including ‘Enriched Environments for Professionals’. Most recently Lisa qualified as a Certified Sensory Enrichment Coach with Nordic Education Centre for Ethical Dog Training.
