Pawsitive Start to Scentwork: Reactive Dog Group Six Week Course; Tuesdays Evenings
An amazing opportunity to help your dog with reactivity and get serious about scentwork over six weeks. It is a truly addictive sport that will help you see your dog in an entirely new light as they amaze you with what they can do independently and what you both can do as a team. Opening up an entirely new world of opportunities like being able to take part in official WSDA scentwork competitions based on fun themes and serious scentwork. Held at our amazing venue in Nottingham NG12, a fully enclosed field full of agility equipment creating a unique and dynamic search area. Only four handler spots are available. Ideal for complete beginners to those with more experience.
You will learn how to teach your dog to recognise a target scent and conduct searches, teaching dogs to use their noses instead of looking for things to worry about on lead walks combined with changing the way dogs feel about scary and frustrating behaviour triggers, so they actively choose scentwork instead of reacting badly to situations that would typically set them off.
