Training Classes

Nose work with Jeanne

5 week program - $350 3:30 pm & 6:30 pm - May 8th, 15th, 22nd, 29th & June 5th

*3:30 pm is for beginners only - new to the course.

*6:30 pm is for previous nose work class attendees re-enrolling - this class will focus on Birch Scent Search.

This class focuses on teaching your dog how to use their nose to follow scents both with and without distractions. The class is limited to 6 dogs. Nose work allows dogs to use their primary sense and helps teach persistence and independence. It’s an excellent enrichment activity for building confidence and resiliency. Nose work has been shown to lower heart rates and produce a sense of calm. This training can strengthen the dog/guardian bond and is fun for both involved. This class is appropriate for dogs of all ages. Your dog will be asked to settle in a crate between search rounds. Reactive dogs are welcome but no dogs with a bite history.
