Odor Series Part 2: Convergence Webinar Instructor Judith Guthrie Learn what convergence is, what it looks like, and the best ways to help your dog learn how to be the best puzzle solver they can be in this webinar.

Having trouble working more than one hide? Convergence is when the odor plumes of multiple hides intermingle, and your dog must sort out the individual plumes before sourcing and communicating the location of the individual hides to you. There are many different ways these puzzles can present themselves and it is our job to help our dog learn how to do this.

In this webinar, we will discuss what convergence is, what it looks like, and the best ways to help your dog learn how to be the best puzzle solver they can be. The better your team is, the faster your times and more confident your team will be.

NOTE: This webinar is the second in a three-part webinar series. We strongly urge everyone to participate in all three to get the most out each presentation, as they do build off of one another.

The webinar was great. I like the pace. The content and the ability to "rewind" to listen again.

Denise S. Odor Series Part 2: Convergence Webinar

Love the slides and the breakdown of the videos to have a visual of what it looks like on paper and what it looks like in real time watching the dog actually working them. It was also nice to have her breakdown the steps to training the convergence.
