Thank you everyone who made it out to the Holiday Fundraiser sniff. You guys donated over 500.00 for Old Dog Haven and American Brittany Rescue. I have either emailed, messaged or messengered you all of your photos. The last photo is a dog who sat in a box from 9:30-3:30.
There are still a few spots left in January series classes starting 1/21. Taking a much needed vacation the next few weeks.

Unfortunately this year the annual but very much toned down holiday sniff n go fundraiser conflicts with a couple of trials and another sniff n go but before I offer it up to gen pop I thought I’d post to the inner circle:).
There will be snacks:).

It's time for the annual end of year fundraising sniff! I'm busier than ever this year and unfortunately this year conflicts with other Sniffs and a couple of trials but I hope you'll swing by for a DISTRACTORIFIC container search and a Whole Lotta Hides Interior/Exterior. Appropriate for all levels...

DISTRACTORS from intentional (containers and AKC upper level) to unintentional (pee/critters/food/noise/people etc). This 5 week series will help you navigate confidently through your searches no matter what is there with you:). Please note if your dog is AFRAID during a search, this is not an appropriate class.

It’s almost my favorite time of year-truffle season!! You have the potential to find truffles this season even if you’re starting from no experience! Foundation classes are for anyone with zero experience to folks nearly ready to hit the forest. 15% discount (refunded or credited toward another class) to the first 3 people who sign up. When you register put your preferred time and your experience. We will try to accommodate time but putting folks at similar levels is our priority.
I can smell the truffle toast now:).
