Greater Houston German Shepherd Dogs Rescue: Dog Enrichment Grant Report

This grant provided toys that challenged our dogs. German Shepherds need this type of enrichment, as they are so smart and energetic. Our fosters appreciated the toys and it allowed our dogs to keep busy and use their intellect.

Boy oh boy, are we doggone grateful for the Petfinder Foundation! Your generous grant of $1,000 allowed us to purchase some badly needed enrichment toys for our amazingly adoptable German Shepherds.
Kimbo (first and second photos), Romper (third photo), Sarge (photos 4 and 5), and a couple of others who are getting spiffed up and ready to make their debut are so happy they get to work their active curiosity with these toys. You know how smart they are, and how they really make the most out of enrichment toys like snuffle mats, puzzles, and B-A-L-L-S (can’t say the word because … well, you know how excited they get when we mention BALL!!!).
We’re super excited to share the news, and we’re ever so grateful for the support we get from grants like this one from Petfinder Foundation.
