PUPPY SNIFFING OUTDOOR ADVENTURES COURSE
Now that your puppy has an idea of what the Scent Work game is all about, it is time to introduce them to the concept of hunting in exterior and vehicle search areas!
Dianna L. Santos
COURSE DETAILS
In this 6-week online course, we will introduce your puppy to two of the more challenging search elements: exteriors and vehicles.
As in the Puppy Scent Work course, all of the exercises are customized to ensure your puppy will be successful and with the goal that they will find this activity exciting, engaging and most importantly, fun! We will leverage their love for the sniffing game to introduce them to working in novel exterior locations, thus helping them learn the world is a fun place, as opposed to scary or worrisome.
This approach will benefit ALL puppies, but the foundation you will build in this course will be crucially valuable if you were interested in ultimately competing in formal Scent Work trials. Your puppy will be hunting for primary in this course.

collar (flat or martingale)
harness (back-clip) (optional)
