Garden adventure- aka sensory garden for dogs 

Did you know that you can turn your garden into an adventure for your dog?                                   

It doesn't have to be expensive or take up the whole garden just a few dog-safe plants such as lavender, chamomile, marigolds and thyme, planted in a corner or along the border with a little path for easy access all around or enough space for your dog to lay down amongst them, is just as enriching as if you were to go all out. With tunnels, a sniffing area, different floor textures such as gravel, rubber, slabs, pebbles, sand, a paddling pool, sandbox, ramps, or a maze filled with the things listed and then some.   

Adding a variety of textures, such as grass, sand, mulch, etc., enhances their tactile experience. Adding a variety of plants not only smells good but can have great medicinal benefits. Lavender is well known for calming, while chamomile can help relieve minor pain. 

 Creating such an environment for your dog provides fantastic mental stimulation and body awareness. These gardens provide a stimulating environment that encourages exploration, play, and relaxation, catering to the natural instincts and needs of dogs, which can help reduce stress, reduce boredom, enhance bonding and boost both mental and physical exercise.
