What a fun idea: a nose work advent calendar!

11/12/2024

Sunday turned out to be a perfect day for nose work! Thanks to all who joined the travel class in Williamsport. We worked on close and converging hides, as well as search area coverage. We even got to search a boat loaded on a trailer.

Special thanks to Tara for making this awesome location available to us.

We had a gorgeous morning for a nose work travel class today. We worked on corners, search area coverage, and searching in distracting environments. Thanks to everyone who came out to play!

Another fabulous ORT is in the books. Many thanks to the amazing volunteers at Breakaway Action Dogs, who always put on a lovely event. It is always a pleasure to judge at their ORTs!

Congratulations to Jen and Skye! It's been such fun to be part of their spotted lanternfly search journey. Well done, team!

I'm excited to share that today Skye and I passed our Spotted Lanternfly Field Evaluation!! The FE consists of finding 3-5 hides in an 80'x80' area in 5 minutes.

Despite meeting at 7:30 am it was HOT, I had my usual nerves, and there were so many distractions (we went after 2 boy dogs who marked the area, plus there were so many dog and critter smells and a chicken coop next door!). I'm so proud of my girl working through all of that! 💓

Now we get well-deserved naps and then we can move on to practicing for real searches!

Intro to K9 Nose Work classes can be hard to find. If you want to get your dog started in this fun sport, check out Amie's class in April!

Start your week off with the most fun you and your dog can have together! Perfect for senior dogs who are no longer fleet of foot, baby dogs who are fleet of attention, and all dogs in between. No previous training is required, reactive dogs are welcome, you can play it indoors or outdoors, and even turn it into a practical skill.

We ended up with a fabulous day for nose work training this morning. We spent time working in analyzing a search area and searching with a plan. Lots of interesting environmental challenges to work through as spring is waking up the woods. Thanks to all the teams who came out to search!

Suzanne Clothier will be here in Maryland for a seminar at the beginning of March. It's going to be a great weekend - hope to see lots of you there!

NOTE: You do not need to attend with a dog to benefit! There will be plenty of opportunities for you to participate without a dog, and so much to learn without one. Unless you register for a working spot or your case study is selected, your dog might have a more enjoyable day chilling out at home.
