Scent Work

Sniffing is one of the most natural and rewarding behaviors for dogs. Professional and competitive scent detection uses the dog’s incredible olfactory abilities and love of hunting while building a partnership based on trust and communication.
In this set of classes, you and your dog will learn to search for the 3 essential oils used in competition. We will build your dog’s ‘odor obedience’, your understanding of ‘in odor behavior’, your ability to ‘read your dog’, your knowledge of how odour interacts with the environment, and how to handle odour and set simple hides.
Suitable for dogs 6month and up.
6 Week Set of Group Classes $235 (includes starter odour kit)
Classes are approx. 60 to 75min.
