What's inside a Discovery Kit

Our current Discovery Kit: Playful Predators

Our Discovery Kits are a yearlong series. Every other month, we explore a different aspect of our dogs' world with information, activities, games, and toys that are interactive, fun, and enriching for dogs of all sizes and ages.

This November and December, explore the ways hunting shaped dogs as a species, amplified the human-dog bond, and still influences how we live and play with dogs today in our "Playful Predators" Discovery Kits.

Complete list of Discovery Kit themes

January - February: Smellscapes

Explore how dogs' heightened sense of smell changes how they perceive and interact with the world around them.

Did you know? Dogs can smell many things that we think are odorless.

March - April: I Woof You

Take a deep dive into your dog's heart to learn more about how their capacity for love influenced their evolution and how they like to give and receive love today.

Did you know? Dogs, humans, and chimps are the only species known to catch yawns.

May - June: Dumpster Thrivers

Learn how scavenging played a critical role in the evolution from wolf to dog and is still a huge part of our dogs' behavior today.

Did you know? Because dogs evolved as a part of human societies, they can eat almost everything we eat.

July - August: Dog at Heart

Discover your dog's emotional range and learn how to interpret their feelings.

Did you know? Happy dogs laugh. It's a soft, non-rhythmic panting sound.

September - October: Naughty by Nature

Explore the many dog behaviors that we find gross, destructive, or irritating but dogs find normal, acceptable or even polite.

Did you know? There is no consensus on why dogs roll in stinky stuff. A few top theories are that they are masking their scent for hunting, that they are spreading the scent of a resource to help others find it, or that it's just for fun.

November - December: Playful Predators

Delve into each of the skills involved in hunting and how they shaped domestication, breed differences, and our dogs' behavior today.

Did you know? Unlike cats, most dogs no longer have the entire set of hunting skills needed to catch and eat prey.
