Customized Training Plan: We begin with a completely Free dog scent training lesson. In this lesson we will be conducting a thorough assessment of your dog’s behavior, temperament, and your training goals using our simple and effective 5 step process. Based on this evaluation, we develop a personalized training plan tailored to meet your dog’s unique needs and goals.

Understanding Canine Olfaction: We provide education about the remarkable capabilities of your dog’s sense of smell. Understanding how dogs perceive and process scent is crucial for effective scent training and communication between you and your canine partner.

Basic Obedience Foundation: We establish a strong foundation of basic obedience commands such as sit, stay, come, and heel. These commands provide the framework for effective communication and control during scent training exercises and activities.

Introduction to Scent Detection: Our program introduces your dog to the concept of scent detection and teaches them to associate specific scents with rewards. We start with simple scent discrimination tasks and gradually increase the complexity and difficulty of scent detection challenges as your dog progresses.

Scent Imprinting and Recognition: We conduct scent imprinting exercises to teach your dog to recognize and discriminate between different target scents. These exercises help your dog develop the ability to identify and locate specific odors accurately and reliably.

Search Techniques and Strategies: We teach your dog various search techniques and strategies to effectively locate and indicate the presence of target scents. This includes area searches, article searches, vehicle searches, and building searches, depending on the specific scent detection application.

Handler Education and Support: We provide comprehensive education and support for handlers, equipping you with the knowledge and skills needed to effectively work with your scent detection dog. This includes instruction on reading your dog’s body language, understanding scent behavior, and implementing effective handling techniques during scent detection exercises.

Realistic Training Scenarios: Our program incorporates realistic training scenarios and simulations to prepare you and your dog for real-world scent detection challenges. We create scenarios that mimic the environments and conditions your dog may encounter during actual scent detection missions or activities.
