Dog-Friendly Sensory Spaces

'The Scent Den' in Toronto Provides an Enriching Experience for Dogs

— March 28, 2019 — Lifestyle
Different forms of enrichment, including sensory enrichment, are vital to the well-being of a dog and The Scent Den in Toronto makes it easy to stimulate a dog's sense of sight, sound, smell, taste and touch.

Wholesome Canine recently opened The Scent Den as a safe and comfortable space at the back of its shop to mentally stimulate dogs by encouraging natural, instinctive behaviors such as sniffing, exploring and investigating. The indoor space is filled with plenty of interests and entertainment for dogs that ultimately promote a sense of calm and confidence.

The Scent Den is open to one dog at a time for 45 minutes and is ideal for all dogs, especially ones that tend to be nervous, anxious or fearful, as well as others that are elderly or in the process of recovering from surgery.
Trend Themes
1. Dog-friendly Sensory Spaces - Designing indoor spaces for dogs to stimulate their senses can promote their well-being and reduce anxiety.
2. Enrichment-based Services for Pets - Offering unique and personalized services to pets, such as sensory enrichment, can provide a competitive edge in the pet care industry.
3. Animal Assisted Therapy - Integrating sensory experiences into animal assisted therapy sessions can enhance the mental and emotional well-being of patients.
Industry Implications

2. Hospitality - Providing dog-friendly spaces and activities can attract pet owners as potential customers for hotels, restaurants, and travel destinations.
3. Healthcare - Incorporating animal-assisted therapy programs and sensory enrichment experiences can enhance patient care and satisfaction in healthcare facilities.
