BIG IMPACT ON A SMALL BUDGET


Creative, affordable enrichment for every shelter.

"It’s great to see low-cost ‘insider’ tips for training and enrichment equipment. There are so many ways to be creative and provide enrichment with objects that the average person just wouldn’t think of. I really can’t say enough good things about this course!"
– Thomas Geroy, Operations Director for Chemung County Humane Society and SPCA, Elmira, NY

"This course is a bit like a good book; I can’t put it down! I am an experienced clicker trainer, but the course has made me take stock and clean up my act, so to speak! I found several tips, especially for enrichment ideas."
-Carole Husein

"The course layout is very flexible and is appropriate for longer learning sessions or shorter chunks of time. A great mix of handouts, links, and videos! These takeaways for the learner are resources to be referred to later. Bravo!"
– Angela Tague, Pet Behavior and Enrichment Coordinator for Animal Rescue League of Iowa
