Finding appropriate outlets for your Fido’s energy and intellectual needs can be invaluable for their mental and behavioral health. Dogs that are showing destructive behaviors in the home are often simply bored. Providing them with an enriching experience like exploring, running, sniffing, and playing at Fido’s Forest might be the perfect solution. Does your dog suffer from anxiety or reactivity? A visit to Fido’s Forest might help with that too! Many dogs are most comfortable when they are off-leash and able to be free to explore outside and just like exercise for humans, stress-reducing activities for dogs can have a direct impact on reactivity and anxiety.
