The nose always knows so put it to work!
In Find It! class, you will put your dog’s natural scenting abilities to work. Nose work is a great way for your dog to have fun, build confidence, and burn lots of mental and physical energy.
The foundation level will provide an introduction to odour for dogs and handlers through container searches. We will focus on proper handling of odour and equipment, leash handing, reinforcement and learning how to read your dog's alert signals.
We will follow the rules of The Sporting Detection Dogs Association and Wintergreen (Gaultharia procumbens) will be our target odour. A take-home scent kit will be provided to each participant.
