This six week class will cover how to get started in UKC Nosework. We will begin by imprinting the birch scent on your dog and teach your dog an alert behavior. Once your dog has paired birch odor with reward we will move on to container searches starting with glass jars, then cardboard boxes and moving on to simple interior/exterior searches. We will also stress going all the way to source and how to read your dog's behavior when it is in an area of odor.

It’s super important to attend all classes as there will be minimal time to catch up and each class will build on the previous class. It’s also important to practice every day (only 5-10 min per session) especially the first two weeks.

Scent work kits are included in price of class.
