Imagine something that builds confidence, stimulates the brain, improves behaviour, and deepens your ​bond with your dog.
​
Imagine ​scent work!

"Scent work has been life changing for my reactive, scared dog."
​

 ​Scent work is no longer the preserve of  working dogs. Now pet dogs can learn scent work for fun and for sport using the same methods as real world detection dogs! 

Scent work can also influence behaviour. It can help all dogs, and especially reactive, fearful, and shy dogs, feel more comfortable and confident in the world. 

​Put your dog’s remarkable nose to work through our scent work program. You will have a happy, tired dog and be amazed at what your dog can do!

​Why scent work?

  • Solving scent puzzles requires a lot of brain power and is terrific mental stimulation as dogs problem solve and work through challenges. 

  • Scent work taps into your dog's natural abilities and instincts: to sniff and to hunt.  

  • Scent work builds confidence and new skills.

  • Scent work feels good to dogs!

  • Dogs of all breeds, ages, and sizes can participate.

  • Dogs who are shy, reactive, and nervous benefit from structured, positive, fun exposure to new environments and learning opportunities.

  • Scent work improves our communication with and understanding of our dogs. We can never experience the world of scent the way our dogs do, but we can become part of that world as their scent work partners. 
    ​
  • Scent work classes are full of laughter and fun and camaraderie as we cheer for each dog and handler.
