Happy 3rd Birthday, Ilka! 🎉🥳

This thoughtful little hunter is turning three today! 🎂🐾

Ilka the Hungarian Wirehaired Vizsla is a regular on our mantrailing sessions and is known for her calm, steady approach — unless a cat or swooping bird appears 🐦🐈… then those hunting instincts kick right in!

It’s been such a joy watching her grow in confidence and skill over the years, and we’re so lucky to have her (and her lovely handler) as part of the Sniff & Trail UK family. 💛

Have the best day, Ilka – we hope it’s full of fun, sniffs, and plenty of extra treats! 🦴👃🏼

National Puppy Day! – Give Your Puppy a Job (That’s Good for Them!)

Puppies are little sponges, soaking up new experiences! But their joints are still growing, so we need to be mindful of how we exercise them.

That’s where scent work and mantrailing come in!

At Sniff & Trail UK, our puppy-friendly sessions:
✅ Provide low-impact mental stimulation that doesn’t strain growing joints
✅ Tire them out in a constructive way, using their brain rather than just their body
✅ Build focus, patience, and problem-solving skills from an early age
✅ Strengthen your bond as you work together as a team
✅ Lay solid foundations for training and future activities – setting them up for success as they grow!

A mentally satisfied puppy is a happy puppy! Using their nose gives them a job that fulfils them without overdoing it physically.

If you’d like to give your pup a job they’ll love, get in touch about our puppy-friendly scent work and mantrailing sessions!

🌬️ Take a sniff, Penny! 👃🐾

One of the first skills we teach in mantrailing is how to take scent from an article. This is a crucial part of the game—without it, the dog wouldn’t know who they’re looking for! 🧐🐕

Here, Penny the German Shepherd puppy is still learning the ropes. Because the scent article is novel, she naturally goes in for a sniff. As she does, we calmly give her a sniff cue to help her link the action with the cue word! 🧠

Not every dog picks it up the same way - some get a little over-excited when they catch a whiff of their misper! Don’t worry, we’ve got plenty of tricks to help dogs take scent calmly and in a way that works for them. It’s all about trial and error, and finding what’s right for each individual dog. 💪🏻

✅ Taking scent properly is key to following the right trail—get this step right, and the rest is so much smoother!

Curious about how your dog would get on? We’ve still got limited intro sessions available in March and April - come and give it a go! 🐾

🐾 Happy Golden Retriever Day! 🐾

Time to celebrate the golden goofballs of the dog world! 🌟 While currently we only have one full Golden Retriever who trails with us - Noodle - we also have our very own Golden Retriever x Labrador, Freida! She may not have the classic golden coat (being black, she often gets mistaken for a Labrador), but she’s all heart and just as lovable. 💛🖤

Mantrailing is a fantastic way to give Golden Retrievers a job they’ll love! With their intelligence, eagerness to please, and natural scenting abilities, they take to the game brilliantly. It’s also a great confidence booster - just ask Noodle! She’s only done two sessions, but she’s already showing how much she loves the game, and we can see a real improvement in her confidence. 🎉

On Saturday we were joined by Apollo the ‘Goberian’ (Golden Retriever x Husky) for his introduction to Mantrailing - proving that Goldens and their mixes can thrive with their noses too! 🐶💨

Got a Golden Retriever who needs a job? Mantrailing or Scent Work could be their perfect match! 🕵️‍♂️🐾

🥜🐾 Happy National Peanut Butter Day! 🐾🥜

Two peanut butter fiends - Archie, the Border Terrier, and Peanut, our very own German Shepherd! These two are united by their love for peanut butter—and they agree it’s the ultimate reward after a hard day of sniffing and trailing. 🐶🍯

But did you know that licking peanut butter (or any safe, dog-friendly spread) has benefits beyond just being delicious?

✅ It helps release feel-good endorphins, helping dogs like Archie and Peanut relax after the excitement of a trail.

✅ Licking is also a calming activity, perfect for bringing arousal levels down and helping them wind down after using their brains and noses to the max.

✅ Plus, it’s a fun and rewarding way to keep dogs engaged, reinforcing the bond between dog and handler.

When used in moderation and as part of a balanced diet, plain peanut butter (with no added sugar, xylitol, or salt) can be a great protein-packed treat. Just be sure to check the label before sharing! 🥜✨

Does your dog love peanut butter as much as Archie and Peanut, or do they have another favorite reward? Let us know in the comments! 👇
