Service Description

IMPORTANT - DOGS MUST BE HAPPY TO STAY IN THE CAR AS THE MAJORITY OF EXERCISES ARE DONE ONE DOG AT A TIME This new and exciting class introduces you and your dog to the exciting world of pet dog scent detection. This course is suitable for any dog new to scent detection or those very early in their scent detection journey looking for extra learning and support from experienced trainers. We all know that dogs have the most amazing noses and sense of smell. Sniffing is what they do naturally and they are brilliant at it. This course is designed to introduce you and your dog to the world of scent detection and harness their natural ability. It's a great way for you and your dog to work together as a team, building your bond whilst increasing your dog's confidence. It uses your dog's brain as they need to concentrate and focus on the task and it is well accepted that mental stimulation can be more tiring than physical exercise alone. Dogs are taught to identify and search for a specific odour - We introduce the dogs to Kong during the introduction course. Which then gives you to option to continue on Kong or to introduce your dog to Gun Oil. The course is taken by the College of Scent Dogs City and Guilds qualified instructors and highly experienced and knowledgeable dog trainers. This course will have the support of Sandra Raw owner of Worcester Dogs, a fully qualified scent instructor, Clinical Animal Behaviourist and a full member of the APBC. Once you have completed our introduction course we offer plenty of fun and novel workshops in different and exciting venues.
