K9 Nose Fun

K9 Nose Fun K9 Nose Work® is the FUN new sport for you and your dog. It's not work, though. It's FUN! K9 Nose Fun Does your dog like to sniff? Have you considered nose work?

Are you looking for something to keep your dog entertained on a cold, wet, or stinking hot afternoon? Something you can do indoors or outdoors, and uses very little equipment? K9 Nose Fun. K9 Nose Work® is the fun search and scenting activity for nearly all dogs and their people. It is easy to learn, and helps build confidence and focus in many dogs. It is a safe way to keep dogs mentally and phys

ically fit. It is ideal for shy or reactive dogs, because only one dog works at a time, while the other dogs are kept out of the working area. Classes currently being run in Richmond, Donvale, Murrumbeena, and beyond. Other locations on demand. "Have boxes, will travel". A self paced online Introduction to K9 Nose Work course is also available

Week Two for these 5 gorgeous dogs ❤️🐾
They are doing such a great job! They have learnt to find food, not always in a box. Their humans are learning to read their changes of behavior, and are learning how to really support their dogs during the search.
We are all looking forward to our next class.

Good girl Georgia

After a busy morning at two search warrants with our good friends over at Queensland Police Service, technology detection dog Georgia dropped by their Gold Coast POLAIR hangar for some training with her handler.

She’s looking rightfully proud because she sniffed out a USB that had been hidden inside a metal dangerous goods cabinet. Georgia loves learning as her skill set continues to grow in importance due to the evolving role tech plays in criminal activity.

Nose work for FUN, for therapy, for sport, for enrichment. But mainly for FUN! These 5 dogs are doing such a great job! Week Two, and they have learnt to find food, not always in a box. Their humans are learning to read their changes of behavior, and are learning how to really support their dogs during the search. No wonder I love my job ❤️🐾

Phew, we had a hot day for our first day of this course 🥵, but I purposely kept numbers down so that we could all safely take advantage of the air con. The 3 dogs attending (and their humans, too) were able to keep cool, even while they worked hard to work out the puzzles. 3 very different dogs, but all 3 did so well! ❤️🐾. I am looking forward to our next class in a couple of weeks.
