K9 InScentives Nose Work Training for Fun and Competition TESTIMONIALS

I've been doing Nose Work with Valerie since 2012. Then I started with Abbie and now Emmett. Carolyn L.

I started with my beautiful red boy Zane who passed away in 2016. Abbie is 9 and Emmett is 3. Boomer [will be] 13 years old next month. We’ve been doing NW for greater than 5 years. NW has built his confidence as well as mine in addition to forming a trusting, loving relationship with me. Boomer has his NW1, L1I, L1E. Fun and enjoyment plus meeting great people with common goals has been so reward

ing. Carol B. Buster and I started Nose Work because he was incorrigible. Everyone loves him but he was very bad. Thanks to Valerie he has come light years ahead and is a pleasure to be around now for everyone. The training has done wonders for both of us. Lurena W. Hook and I are learning NW together under Valerie‘s awesome direction. We both love the classes. . . . He is over the top excited for NW and to see Valerie each week. Lynn L. Declan was entered in an ORT last month and he made me VERY proud by passing all three odors on his first try ! ! I am learning to TRUST his nose & ability and that is making us a much better team. Vera R.

[My] Giant Schnauzer, Rio, . . . got his NW1, a first place in vehicles and Pronounced. . . We have been with Valerie for about 3 1/2 years now and I have started my 2 year old Giant puppy Emmie as well. Pat T. Carlee is a former puppy mill breeder we rescued at ~ age 3, she is now 10 and a much more confident dog thanks to NW. She was not terribly shy but had absolutely no confidence. I started her to help build her confidence and it has made a huge difference. Vanessa M.

I’m very proud of my students and their successes. This weekend at the NW 2 trial, Chris and Justice earned their title in second place overall and Lynn and Hook earned their NW2 title with a 3rd in Vehicles, 2nd in Exteriors, and 1st place overall out of 42 entries! A title also went to Grace and Devin for their NW1. This was a first try for each of them. Way to go!!! 👏👏👏❤️🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾

I can't say enough about the awesome volunteer crew I had this weekend! Every person was like a worker-bee, keeping things going like clockwork. So many competitors in NW1 yesterday had this as their very first NACSW trial experience and I'm proud that these volunteers made it a good one. Today's heat for the NW2 was oppressive and we had some crazy behind-the-scenes issues, but the volunteers rose to the occasion and knocked it out of the park. Special thanks to Janet Nyce Stavrides for getting her feet wet as a VC and probaby put 20 miles on them over the weekend, and to Nicole Trotter for all her VC mentoring. And HUGE thanks to Ana Cilursu who ran the parking lot almost single-handedly, even though she looked like she was about to melt from the heat! Volunteers can make or break a trial. The people who gave their time this weekend so others could get out and play NW with their dogs were simply awesome and they made this trial weekend a huge success!!! ❤🐾

Recently one of my scent class students, I’ll call her June, got me thinking a lot about pressure. This article on the application of spatial pressure, whether intentional or inadvertent, and how it affects dog behavior in the context of scent detection tasks is the result of this thought. This ar...

Huge congratulations to Kathy and Zuko for achieving their NW1 Title Pronounced AND 1st Place Overall!!! That's a giant accomplishment and honor.

Pronounced is "an acknowledgement of exceptional teamwork . . . [and is based on] professionalism, handler and dog safety, observational skills, leash handling technique, off leash control, speed and efficiency, accuracy, stamina, enthusiasm, odor obedience, clarity of alert and dog/handler communication. Pronouncement will be solely at the discretion of the judge(s) for that trial." (page 21, NACSW Official Rule Book For The Sport of K9 Nose Work).

I'm so proud of this team. Way to go, Kathy and Zuko!!
