My Head Hurts: Dealing with Frustration Threshold in Scent Work Webinar Instructor Dianna L. Santos Solving odor puzzles is hard! Many dogs will give up on challenging searches when they meet their frustration threshold. Learn how to help these dogs stick with the puzzle instead, even when their heads hurt.

There are many dogs who have a low frustration threshold, which means they may quit on a search or otherwise disengage when a puzzle is too challenging for them.

In this webinar, we will discuss why this happens, what it looks like within the context of Scent Work and outline some training solutions for teams to try.
