North Yorkshire people

We will be running a brand new scentwork course based on Scent Ops!

This 3 part workshop will give new teams a solid understanding of scentwork training, what's involved in Scent Ops, and what the options are for progression. Scent Ops are operational style scentwork competitions aimed at both sport and companion dogs, with progressive levels, feedback at the time, and awesome rosettes plus lots more! We are really excited to be running these classes and events.

🚀 Three workshops! Each workshop builds on things learnt in the previous one, with a two week gap in between each so you have plenty of time to practice.

Part One:16th Janurary 2025

Part Two: 30th January 2025

Part Three: 13th February 6th 2025

🚀 7pm start in Huddersfield
🚀 Large indoor venue
🚀 VERY limited spaces are available for this course to ensure all dogs and handlers get plenty of time and space to train.

This beginners course is suitable for dogs new to Scentwork or for those who may benefit from a refresher. Dogs must be comfortable working indoors in a group environment to attend this course.

For more info on scent ops take a look at the scent ops website.

We will also be holding our first Club and Bronze Scent Ops Trials after this course in March 2025, so your training can be goal-orientated!

The Bronze trial on the 12th December at Murton Park, York

1st Charlotte Wood & Monty 98
2nd Jane Potter & Candy 94
3rd Amanda Jones & Molly 78
4th Jan & Amber 78 ( diamond league)
5th Charlotte Ping & Blue

An evening Bronze Trial on the 12th December held at Murton Park Farming Museum.

This was the first time we have used this indoor area at the farming museum. It is such a fabulous space full of old farming equipment. It was a cold night and there were plenty of drafts coming through.

The search area was made up of a fraction of the space. It began at the bottom of some stairs and led down and to the left with an area that led off to the left which was a dead end. The search area included a number of different old farming machinery, and brick built old toilet , and at the end some sofas and a table with a wooden train track on.

The 1st hide was placed at the start of the search area on the left under the staircase. All dogs expect one missed this on the 1st pass. Some due to dogs pinging past it and others looked like they had picked it up but failed to locate immediately and handlers would task on.

The second hide was located in the dead end area to the left, on a cog that was on the shaft of some equipment. All dogs located this one, some immediately and others took some working.

All teams did work very well and it's so nice to see people returning and seeing them take on board previous comments and clearly have worked on areas that needed improvement.

Storm Ashley couldn't spoil the fun at the first round of the Scent Ops Winter Series held at Breckenhill today.
The morning Club trial definitely had the quieter weather....by the Bronze trial in the afternoon, it was blowing a hooley and although the search was technically indoors it was definitely 'well ventilated'
Results as follows;
Club Trial
1st Laura Kirk and Tilly
2nd Antoinette Traynor and Tiggie
3rd Nicky Rodgers and Kaboo
4th Sandra Haveron and Woody
5th Karen Crawford and Tillie
6th Andrea Newbold and Silver
It proved impossible to separate second, third places on points so unusually for Scent Ops they were decided on time.
Bronze Trial
1st Patrice Kerrigan and Poppet
2nd Nicky Rodgers and Bobbi
3rd Christine Murphy and Milo
4th Jillian Marshall and Humphrey
5th Lesley Clements and Tejo
6th Andrea Neuhold and Silver
Congratulations to all the place winners and well done to all competitors.
