K9 Nose Work® 1 – Intro to Nose Work
Location: Pioneer Park Center (1331 Talbot Court)
Activity #165024
K9 Nose Work® is a new and fast-growing scenting sport for companion dogs and is inspired by the training and work of law enforcement detection dogs. The sport develops your dog’s natural hunting and scenting abilities to find target odors for fun or competition. Any dog breed (or mix), any age, activity level, or physical abilities can participate. Because only the working dog is in the working area during a search, dogs that are uncomfortable around other dogs or those with environmental issues can learn and thrive in this new sport. An obedient dog is not necessary! All dogs must be able to be “car crated” or quietly wait their turn in a covered crate. For questions, contact Barb at the.elemental.dog@gmail.com or call (307) 421-5514.

Session 1: NACSW Skills Challenge #2 Set Up and Video The NACSW Skills Challenges are a great way to build foundation skills while earning titles for dog.

Teams should be on all three NACSW odors. For questions contact Barb at the.elemental.dog@gmail.com or call 307-421-5514.
Session 2: Close Proximity Hides Close-proximity hides become common at the NACSW Elite Level and in the upper levels of AKC. However, helping our dogs learn to work through the potential converging and pooling and trapping odor will benefit all teams regardless competition level or venue. Search elements will cover interiors, exteriors, containers, and vehicles. If there is interest, a modified buried scenario can be included (smaller containers than AKC regulation for ease of set up). All NACSW odors will be used. Even if you compete in venues other than NACSW, these foundational skills are essential. Prerequisite: Dogs must be able to search independently for birch, anise, and clove.
