Nose Work 2 – Searching Exteriors/Vehicles

“The Nosework classes are a unique way to bond with your dog. I found that my dogs really enjoyed the game of finding the scent. My younger dog who is anxious with strangers, really benefitted from the nosework class, She gained confidence and has less stranger anxiety now. You cannot go wrong taking a class from Your Dog’s Friend.”

UPDATE – 6/26/20 

Your Dog’s Friend is now offering in-person Nose Work classes.

  • Masks must be worn at all times
  • Only one family member per dog
  • Please review additional COVID-19 policies here

About this Class:

The focus your dog learned in Nose Work 1 pays off when we go outside with noises, smells, and other distractions. Your dog will also work with different types of containers and different set-ups.

The Sport: This exciting, detection-style sport develops a dog‘s natural scenting abilities by using the dog‘s curiosity, desire to hunt, and love of toys, food, and exercise. Eventually, there will be Odor Recognition Trials and Titles, but you can already do fun nose work at home using minimal supplies.

Instructors:

  • Jacqueline Reardon, ANWI (Fridays)
  • Cynthia Langford, ANWI (Sundays)

Fee: $175
