“…In part, this is in recognition of the potential stressors within the environment, including excessive noise [ 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 ], spatial restriction [ 10 , 11 , 12 ], social isolation [ 13 ], loss of attachment figures [ 14 ], loss of control [ 15 ] and lack of a daily routine [ 16 ]. One way to mitigate the impact of these stressors is through the use of enrichment interventions intended to improve welfare [ 17 , 18 , 19 ].…”

“…The fact that in our study these indicators have a statistically significant decrease, suggests that the socialization programme had the desired effect. The aim of an intensive socialization programme with the dogs in a shelter should always be the encouragement of the behavioral traits wanted, desired by the adopters, increasing the chances for the dogs to be adopted and also the possibility of the caregivers to work with them as long as they are kept in the shelter (Moesta et al, 2015).…”

“…The behavioral repertoire of the individual subjected to such programmes is improved by encouraging the expression of species specific manifestations, by preventing, reducing or eliminating the abnormal behavioral patterns such as stereotypes, and also by increasing the ability of the animal to cope with new situations (Wells, 2004). Those dogs that have a better physical and psychological condition are easier to care for and give for adoption and they have a better welfare (Moesta et al, 2015).…”

“…The work of Hubrecht, Serpell, and Poole (1992) sets some of the first expectations of what environmental enrichment can look like in a kennel environment. Others have built on this by defining new standards for dog housing and husbandry (Loveridge, 1998) and describing both animate and inanimate enrichment opportunities for dogs (Moesta, McCune, Deacon, & Kruger, 2015;Wells, 2004). Research studies continue to be published on the role of different enrichment tools in research and shelter environments (Pullen, Merrill, & Bradshaw, 2010, 2012a, 2012b, demonstrating our desire to better understand the needs of dogs.…”
