Nosework Dogs Hi I specialise in training dogs to do Scentwork. I have 30 years of experience working and training both sporting and operational scent dogs.

On 2nd and 3rd May Nosework Dogs has Paul Bunker and Santi Font for a training weekend at SN15 4DY. Handler places are full but I have a small number of spectator places available. Paul will cover calling an area clear and Santi will cover developing reward and start line techniques that enhance the individual detection dog.

I wanted the ground hide to be a blind search for me with no track out to it. I hope this works!

Well thats me and Jerry finished trialling for 2025. We started NNA foundation in March, Pre entry in April, entry at the end of May, enhanced at the end of July, excellent mid September and elite on 13th December. I never planeed or expected us to go this far in our first year. We did 32 full trials in 28 different venues with 24 different judges. Thank you to those 24 judges that gave up their time and to those 28 TOs who sourced those wonderful venues. A mention also to all the NNA team who kept everything running smoothly. Over the 32 trials we achieved 26 medals and 4 synergies . The medals just fit on my medal holder so that was lucky! Jerry is a joy, he creates a connection with me whilst searching, or indeed anyone who works him. My clients have dabbled with him when I have been training others and at times he has stepped up to be a great trainer himself when handlers wanted to get a feel for something and then transfer it to their own dog. I look forward to many more nights snuggling whilst camping with the bestest boy. Next year, our aim is to try new venues and new judges and enjoying continuing to learn from and with each other. Thank you Jezza you nut of a spanner!

Well done to Sara and Merlin. 1st NNA Foundation trial and they come away with 3 badges and a win. What a great start!

My wonderful little man Jerry got his last excellent badge today and has now staged up to elite. His win today was his 7th excellent win in a row. We have enjoyed ourselves so much and I am excited to start elite. Thank you to all the judges, TOs and fellow competitors that make NNA such fun. We just have to work on posing now!
