Nose Work is a sport that mimics the task of working detection dogs to locate a scent and communicate to the handler that the scent has been found. Nose Work creates an amazing working relationship between dogs and their handlers. It is a fun game that any dog can play. You will train your dog to find particular odors in different elements – interiors, exteriors, vehicles and containers. Because sniffing is one of your dog’s greatest joys in life, they love learning and practicing this sport. This class is a great confidence builder for shy or fearful dogs; offers an outlet for older and retired dogs; and provides mental stimulation for ALL dogs.
