Why Choose Scentwork with Us?

🐕 15 minutes of scentwork = a 90-minute walk! Yes, really! Scentwork is one of the best ways to tire your dog out while keeping their mind active.
🏆 Train with the Best! Our classes are led by accredited trainers, including the WINNER of UK Sniffer Dogs Silver Instructor of the Year! We also offer Mantrailing and Tracking—so you can train with experts in all areas of nosework.
💡 Learn in Just 3 Weeks! Our scentwork courses run for 3 consecutive weeks (2 hours per session). Puppy scentwork runs for 5 weeks (1-hour sessions). Private 1-2-1 sessions are also available!
🐾 Perfect for ALL Dogs!
✔️ All ages & breeds – No need for a working-line detection dog!
✔️ Ideal for high-energy dogs – Burn off that mental and physical energy in a structured way.
