Scent Detection (aka scent work, sporting detection, nosework) is a new and growing dog sport that uses training techniques similar to those employed to teach law enforcement dogs to detect narcotics and explosives, or to search for legal substances.

Using positive, rewards based training, this course will introduce a green dog to a new target odor or assist an experienced team with their nose work.

Learn how to reward properly to build motivation and duration at source, scent detection terminology, errorless learning and how we use compnent training to help dogs to succeed.

Scent dog training is a great way to share mental and physical exercise with your dog!

Once you've learned how to do scent detection, you can enjoy doing it every day, with minimal supplies.

No prior experience is required. All ages, sizes, & breeds are welcome.  Puppies must have at least their 2nd vaccination.
