When training for trial there are so many skills to work on that are not just for the level you are currently trialing at!
There are certain things we encounter in trials of all levels, from ORT to Summit. Things like pooling odor, working under pressure, unintentional distractions in the search area, blank areas in a search - yes, that happens in all levels! In an ORT there are two rows of boxes, one of them will be blank! In NW1 you will have 3 vehicles in your search, two of them will be blank! These are concepts not everyone thinks about, but if you prepare for them and learn to read what your dog is communicating, you will be a much more confident team.
In this webinar we will take certain exercises and show you how you can modify them for the trial level you are preparing for. While this will focus on NACSW™ trials, the same exercises and concepts can be used for any scent work organization.
