Tracking is really fun dogs love it . I explain it as the dog part of search resuce similar to mantrailing but we following akc rules dogs have start article of track layer we use scarf or banada .the dog has mose down follows the hot scent where the track layer walked TD 1st level just start end article glove we use those cheap utility gloves cowhide and canvas or cotton. Good treats or if ball motatived one I train with she puts ball in glove for her dog to find. All ages dogs and handlers do sport and tracking people super supportive encouraging helpful. Research shows tracking one best ways to build strong bond with dig and handler you learn to read your dog and trust your dog. It very mentally stimulating for dog they have to think work out where the scent goes .also fun spending time outdoors with your dog . I started a puppy and 9 year old lazy retired show dog but caught on fast and enjoyed it .dont need lot of equipment harness that no binding of shoulders glove bandana or scarf then to start just 6 ft lead . I started with 14 orv15 ft biothane lead got of Amazon but that was more for me to keep up with my dog . But easier shorter one to start with. And good treats or we started dogs with tiny pieces of hot dog since they smell strong . But whatever food treat dogs like . Any questions as Gail .
