The Power of Pairing: Search Monster Webinar Instructor Tony Gravley Learn the power of pairing and Tony's unique system that has afforded his clients to enjoy epic results where dogs consistently drive to source, avoid fringing and are not tripped up by distractors.

Are you curious, what is pairing?

“OMG, Pairing!“

Dog training always seem to have controversial training methods and the topic of pairing is no stranger to controversy. The reality is many times the controversial method is not completely understood. Tony’s Webinar on The Power of Pairing will be loaded with far more than how to pair, it will clarify paring as a training technique and go deep into what makes your dog function based upon the instinctual drives of K9s.

Tony will lay out the system he currently uses (scent association via pairing) and has used for over 35 years for police, military, customs and detection dogs operating in a professional capacity. Over the years, Tony has “tweaked” the system for Companion Detection Dog Sports and this system empowers the dog. The system not only unleashes the instinctual behaviors in the dog but turns on their natural problem-solving skills well beyond a dog with an operant mindset.

Tony will explain and clarify the intricate differences between dogs searching out of instinctual behaviors versus operant behaviors, and how the instinctual side lessens fringe and false responses. Additionally, Tony will explain how distractors no longer become a problem and driving to source becomes the norm.

By all means Tony is not the inventor or originator of “pairing”, but Tony’s system is unique and avoids common potential pitfalls. Tony’s Golden Rules about Pairing will bring clarity to not only the dog but for the handler in understanding the dynamics of pairing.

Tony will dive deep into the explanation of inherited drives of a K9 and ensure the handlers understand the “whys” of pairing, not just the "how we do it" explanation.

Perhaps you didn't start by using pairing or have never used pairing before, not a problem! Tony’s method has been used by countless teams later in their Nose Work career and with epic results completely transforming performance and results.

It was well organized and thorough. Answers to questions were thoughtful.

Laurie M. The Power of Pairing: Search Monster Webinar

Loved how Tony explained how nosework really works from a behavior point of view. I'm familiar with operant and classical conditioning but had never thought about how this all relates to nosework. I love learning all this type of detail. Very geeky

Laurel P. The Power of Pairing: Search Monster Webinar

So much USEFUL information!! Tony laid out his rationale with the scientific reason his method should work and gave concrete examples of why and how it works, then laid out a plan to implement it. Looking forward to his more detailed 6 week step by step plan.

I loved the sample videos Tony included. I loved the opportunity to ask questions. I love that my access doesn't expire, so I can listen to it again when I need a refresher.

Rebecca J. The Power of Pairing: Search Monster Webinar

Appreciated the details on, not only why, but how to use pairing in a dog's training. I have used pairing with my dogs previsouly, but not consistently. I am motivated to start using pairing consistently and excited to see the results!
