"Myself and pup Ru recently completed the puppy foundation course and were very happy to have been taught by Michelle @newforestdogtrainingacademy, we couldn’t ask for a better training class. Michelle is just brilliant. She's clearly a very experienced, knowledgeable dog trainer, who's calm, kind and relaxed attitude coached us humans to bring out the best in our pups" Karen Church

ScentWork UK Classes - Accredited Trainer
Scentwork is when a dog uses its sense of smell to identify and locate a scent which it has been trained to detect.
Dogs have a highly sensitive nose, vastly superior to our own.
Scentwork is a natural behaviour for a dog and essential in hunting and finding prey. As man’s best friend, this behaviour has been put to many uses – for example in police work, search and rescue, and hunting. As a dog sport, Scentwork has emerged from detection style nosework as practiced by customs and excise, explosives detection, search and rescue and medical detection dogs.
The 12 week course covers 4 main areas of scent training in order to develop competence in the four areas, which will then allow you to complete a Level 1 trial.
Five weeks - £100.00
