Enrichment to Support Your Dog’s Wellbeing
Helping dogs be dogs in today’s busy world
Do you want a calmer dog at home?
Are walks stressful because your dog is overexcited, anxious, or reactive?
Would your senior dog benefit from extra support, gentle activities, and comfort?
Is your adopted dog still adjusting to life at home?
Is your energetic dog always looking for “something to do”?
At Hounds Retreat, we provide personalised care and enrichment tailored to your dog’s needs. Enrichment activities, cosy private rooms, and one-on-one care help support your dog’s wellbeing.
Our enrichment sessions give dogs the stimulation and relaxation they need — helping them de-stress, keep their minds active, have fun, and most importantly, simply be a dog.
With our enrichment sessions at Hounds Retreat, your dog goes home feeling more relaxed, having used their mind to problem-solve, build confidence, get gentle exercise, and — most importantly — develop resilience for the busy world that many dogs find challenging.
A happy dog is one whose needs are met — whose wellbeing is supported, who feels confident and calm, and who can simply be a dog
Nestled in the Fife countryside near Kirkcaldy, Hounds Retreat is a calm, enriching space for dogs who need something a little different.
