This is the second class in our Scent Work series, after Intro to Scent Work. our dog will continue to advance their skills in searching in the nose work elements of containers, interior, exterior and vehicles.
Building on the skills you learned from previous scent work classes (Intro and Intermediate), this class focuses on finding more odors and increasing location challenges: transitioning from food to a target odor, finding odor in more challenging locations, etc.
Continue your scent work journey and train your dog to find truffles! Oregon white and black truffles are native to our region and have culinary value. We’ll teach dogs to follow odor trails and uncover ripe truffles.
