enrichment activities!
Enrichment is more than playtime — it’s an investment in your dog’s mind, body, and joy. At Barkyard, we believe pets deserve the same thoughtful stimulation and fulfillment that we seek for ourselves. Our enrichment experiences are carefully curated to engage your dog’s senses, spark curiosity, and deepen their confidence — because here, pets are more than pets.
Enrichment Sessions — $10
Twenty-five minutes of private, tailored attention designed exclusively for your dog. Our team customizes each session to your dog’s unique personality, needs, and goals — from building confidence to sharpening focus or simply unlocking pure joy. These one-on-one moments aren’t just a treat for your dog; they mean a happier, calmer companion for you at home.
Brain Games! (by Nina Ottoson)
Challenge their mind, not just their muscles.
Using award-winning Nina Ottosson puzzle toys, we guide your dog through fun, mentally stimulating problem-solving sessions. These activities satisfy natural foraging instincts and improve focus—all while giving their brain a serious workout. It’s enrichment that tires them out in the best way. We offer graduating levels of difficulty, so your dog can build confidence, advance their skills, and stay mentally engaged over time.
Agility Courses!
Confidence through movement.
Our low-impact agility course is designed to challenge both body and brain. With jumps, tunnels, and weave poles scaled to your dog’s size and skill level, it’s a safe way to build confidence, coordination, and resilience—while having a blast along the way.
Cuddles!
Connection is care.
For pups who crave closeness, cuddle time offers gentle, one-on-one affection with a trusted caregiver. Whether it's lap snuggles, belly rubs, or quiet companionship, this calm, grounding session supports emotional well-being and helps build deep trust with our team.
Fetch or Tug!
Energy out, joy in.
A classic, elevated. Whether your dog loves a fast-paced game of fetch or a good tug-of-war session, we tailor playtime to your dog’s style. Our handlers create safe, structured energy outlets that support impulse control, coordination, and pure, tail-wagging fun.
