Scent Seekers

Scent Seekers is designed for dogs and handlers of all experience levels, whether you're looking to introduce your dog to the exciting world of scent detection for fun or preparing for competitive trials. This package provides personalized guidance, structured lessons, and real-world practice to help your dog develop their scenting abilities.

  • Beginner Level: Focus on basic scent detection, building confidence, and introducing simple games. This includes teaching your dog to find and indicate the target scent, using fun exercises that engage their natural abilities.

  • Intermediate Level: Move into more complex scenting tasks, such as scent discrimination, scent tracking, and alert behaviors. Training will take place in various environments to prepare your dog for more real-world challenges.

  • Advanced Level: Fine-tune your dog’s skills for trial preparation. This includes mock trial environments, improving speed, reliability, and handling distractions. We’ll also work on perfecting your dog’s alerting behaviors.

This program is typically completed in about four weeks and includes:

  • Up to two  Q & A phone or Zoom calls with your trainer so that you can work through and resolve things as they come up.

  • Unlimited trainer support during the program. We understand that questions and challenges may arise during the program. That’s why we offer unlimited trainer support, so you don’t have to wait until our next lesson. We’re here to assist you right away!

  • Two months of continued support via text, email, or phone after program completion. We want to make sure that any questions or concerns you have are addressed, even after you finish the program.

  • Access to our exclusive Facebook group where you can ask your trainers for tips and recommendations. You will also gain access to live streams, free advice, and more!
