Nose Work
Put your dog’s superior scenting abilities to work
Nose Work is a scent-detection sport where your dog learns to sniff out and find specific target odors. Sniffing isn’t just something dogs love – it’s something they are born to do. Nose Work provides an outlet for dogs of all ages to satisfy their natural curiosity and desire to sniff. You can work through Nose Work levels if you want to enter odor recognition trials, but you don’t have to – participate at the pace and level that is right for you both.
Our classes are taught by a Certified Nose Work Instructor (CNWI), certified through the National Associate of Canine Scent Work.
Since the dogs work one at a time in class while the other dogs are crated or behind a barrier, this class is a great option for shy or reactive dogs.
