SCENT DETECTIVES

Scentwork for pet dogs

 A dog's sense of smell is so powerful and they love to explore the world with their nose, which is why Scentwork is a great mental and physical enrichment for your dog. Whether you are wanting to have some fun quality time together or would also like to work towards trials. There is no need for any previous experience, just a willingness for you both to learn. 

This is the one sport where the dog knows more than the person at the end of the leash!

 

What will you learn during training with me?

During our Scentwork classes we cover how to find specific odours in a variety of situations whilst working as a team with your dog. These include; luggage and box, room, outdoor and vehicle searches. 

Why should you try scentwork?

 

  • Suitable for all dogs, any age & any breed
  • Perfect exercise for older, injured or disabled dogs - non injurious sport
  • Improves bond between owner & dog
  • Great confidence builder for shy dogs
  • Learn fun games to play at home
