Scent Work

Let your dog's nose lead the way!

Inspired by working detection dogs, scent work is a game where dogs learn to find hidden objects using their amazing noses. We offer both group classes and private lessons designed to help your dog succeed at every level, from curious beginner to experienced sport competitors.
