Detection work is what search dogs do, that are used professionally for example; drugs, explosives, tobacco and other goods to trace. There are also dogs that can detect cancer cells, can specify a low blood sugar or even detect harmful bacteria in a hospital. All this by teaching them odors. The dog’s nose is something unimaginable for us and it gives the dog a lot of satisfaction to be able to work with it.

Topics that will be covered:
-Body language from the dog and handler.
-How do I teach my dog to differentiate odors?
-Scent discrimination.
-Search for the odor in scent boxes in all kinds of variations (also for advanced dog).
-Storing and treating odors.
-Training structure for learning how to search in different areas.

For who:
This masterclass is accessible for all dogs of all ages.
-Please note that dogs can get very tired of searching, therefore we recommend leaving the dog in the car or kennel when the dog is not searching.
-For insecure dogs, you see them ‘grow’ in their behavior during these 2 days.
-For tireless dogs, after searching you’re tireless dog will be passed out in his/her kennel every evening!
-To optimize the cooperation between you and your dog.
