Nose Work 102 - Expanding the Search

Continue your Nose Work fun! In this class we’ll take your dog’s sniffing game to the next level. We teach the dog to signal us when she/he has found the hide, and then we expand the searches and make them more complicated. We will introduce more environments, including vehicles, boxes, and buried hides, as well as larger areas and multiple hide scenarios. We also cover handling skills, and deepen the handler’s understanding of the dog’s search language.
