There are countless tools when it comes to training and trialing in Scent Work. In this virtual event, our panelists will discuss which tool would be used in when, what their thought process is, how to tell if a given tool or approach is working, what adjustments may need to be made and when to change tact.

Scenarios

Starting a young, energetic, high-drive powerful dog with a more feeble handler, which tool to use and why? What changes, if any, would be made for a less energetic or drivey dog?
Rehabbing a dog with a long history of severe destructive behavior in containers and vehicles, which tool to use and why? Would you recommend these same approaches as a proactive measure?
Sport dog constantly throws behaviors at the handler and lacks overall hunt drive and focus during the search, which tool to use and why? What changes, if any, would be made for a dog that blows off their handler entirely?

★★★★★
Lots of great feedback for common problems encountered in scentwork. Some things applied to my dogs, some didn't, but the comments were still informative and may apply to future dogs I may be training.
