Enrichment and walking ideas
Enrichment should always be enriching - not frustrating

There are things that you can do in terms of walks to make them a less overwhelming experience and so that your dog is not rehearsing the behaviour. Practice makes perfect afterall. Sniffing and play are relaxing activities for dogs so going somewhere that is quieter and full of enriching smells can help a dog to decompress.
These ideas will not be possible for everyone due to circumstances including financial but here are some considerations:
· You could hire a fenced in field.
· Invest in a jacket /lead sleeve such as this to reduce unwanted interactions.
· Go to places that are quieter and not full of lots of dogs.
Here are some more enrichment ideas that can increase positive moments for your dog. You know what your dog likes best so pick and choose and try things and adapt them if needed.
