In-Kennel Enrichment Programs
DuPage County Animal Services staff work together to ensure shelter animals are healthy, happy, and as comfortable as possible in the unfamiliar shelter environment until they are adopted. Through our kennel enrichment program, staff and volunteers engage animals with various activities to keep them well, both physically and mentally. Enrichment is a vital part of our successful adoption program and is only possible by generous donations of supplies from our shelter wish list. Thank you for helping us keep our pets happy and healthy during their stay with us!
