Scent work skill-building workshop (Devon) – Now open for booking!

November 29th, 4:00–6:30 PM
5 Working Spots | 3 Spectator Spots

Come and explore key concepts behind detection work, and build essential skills for both you and your dog.

We’ll have a set challenge for the day, but I’ll ask participants to share their dog’s current level and any challenges (unless we’ve worked together recently) so I can tailor the setups.

Only one team works at a time in rotation, so your dog must be able to wait in your vehicle between turns.

Next Training Days in Devon Coming Up!
Save the date: 29th-30th of November

I have a speaking engagement at Bicton College on the Monday following, so I’m planning to spend the weekend before with you, which is great because I really miss you all!

Please drop me a message here, on WhatsApp, or email [email protected] to get on the interest list, to be able to book a place once everything is confirmed.

Here’s what’s planned:
✅ Scent Work Advanced Challenges (as usual :))
✅ Scent Work Skills Workshop : slightly different format, a bit longer so we have time to geek out and train (I have so much exciting info to share).
✅ Scent 1-2-1s, as usual; if you’re not on my regular list, contact me ASAP
✅ Urban Freestyle Skill Building: two groups: foundations for young dogs and advanced work. Since the weather might be questionable, we’ll aim for an indoor space to really focus on new moves, finish others, and so much more!

If I have extra time, I’ll also offer young dog 1-2-1s, covering life skills and sports skills in the Cullompton area.

I'm so looking forward to see you all :).

Happy Birthday, P ❤️❤️❤️

Here’s to many more years of playing, training, cuddles, relaxing together, camping, adventures, loving all your friends and of course, total craziness.

You’re probably the happiest, most loving, and one of the funniest dogs I’ve ever known. You are always ready to step forward without hesitation to protect when needed, changing into a serious beast.
I can always count on you in everything we do!

Evry day is a P day, but today is even more!
Love you ###x
