Scentwork Introduction Workshops - These are up to two hour workshops that give you the basic start to scentwork with your dog. We cover scent pairing, line handling, body language analysis, pipe searches and an environment search. Complete beginners will be starting on the odour of red Kong, those already on Kong but would like to add another scent to their dogs library can do gun oil.
Kits are not included but can be purchased for practice at home. -
Follow on workshops - Once an introduction has been completed the next stage is to put everything learned in the introduction into practice with linear, exterior, interior or vehicle searches.... all while continuing to work on learning more in-depth body langue and indication markers.

Workshops: these 2-3 hour workshops focus on certain aspects of training from handling, live search areas, distractions and generally improving your teams super scenting skills.
