About this document

Scented Toy Engagement in Shelter Dogs by belizamsantos is a document available to read on EtoBox.

Shelter dogs were given preference assessments to determine which toys and scents they engaged with most. Dogs spent the most time with a stuffed toy compared to other toys. There were no significant scent preferences. When a preferred toy or least preferred toy was scented with a preferred scent, dogs spent more time engaging with the scented toy compared to an unscented one. Adding a preferred scent increased engagement time, suggesting scented toys could provide enrichment for shelter dogs.
