Nose work
Inspired by working detection dogs, Nose Work is the fun search and scenting activity for virtually all dogs and people. This easy to learn activity and sport builds confidence and focus in many dogs, and provides a safe way to keep dogs fit and healthy through mental and physical exercise.
Nose Work starts with getting your dog excited about using his nose to seek out a favorite treat reward hidden in one of several boxes, expanding the game to entire rooms, exterior areas, and vehicles. As your dog grows more confident with his nose, target odors are introduced, and competition skills are taught.
Sessions are 8 weeks long. Class length is determined by allotting 15 minutes per dog (a class of 3 is 45 minutes, a class of 5 is 1 1/4 hours, beginner classes are 1 hour for 4-5 dogs). Dogs must be crated when not working and must be well behaved in the crate. Reactive dogs can be accommodated but people aggressive dogs are not allowed. $125 members / $185 nonmembers
