Talking Dogs Scentwork

Building experience and expertise is a lifelong pursuit. Not sharing what we’ve learned is a waste. Just as not taking advantage when this expertise is offered. That’s why my Scentwork Trainer Blueprint is so important to me. It’s my chance to share my skills, knowledge and Scentwork savvy. Come learn from me. Click the link in bio to enrol. Note: Didn’t want to be wasteful by dumping the clip because of the rare and unexpected Scottish sunspot 🤦🏼‍♀️☀️🕶️ . . #ScentworkExpert #SkillShare #ScentworkTrainer

It’s taken some time but everything has now fallen into place. My courses now give a thorough, logical, comprehensive path that slots in perfectly with 1:1 coaching and tailored feedback to provide a top class scentwork trainer programme. I love working with trainers, it’s been a huge part of my work throughout my career. And now the time is right to be able to pass on my expertise. If you’d like to grasp this opportunity with both hands, I’d love to work with you. 🚀Just click the link in bio to get all the details. . . #ScentworkTrainer #ScentworkBlueprint #CoachingOpportunity

Frost mornings and chilly days are great opportunities to show your client how scent moves. Explain that as you breathe out warm air it rises. Also watch how it plumes and disperses depending on where you’re standing. You could breathe against a solid structure and watch how the movement of the particles is affected by that structure. Include wind direction and height, eg observe the dog’s breath v the handler’s. Opportunities for real time visual illustrations of how scent moves are rare so take advantage when you can. . . #ScentMovement #FrostDay #TeachingOpportunity

At the start of the year I feel it’s the perfect time to get down to the nitty gritty and to share what I’m all about, what I stand for, what values I have for Talking Dogs Scentwork and all my courses and resources.

I've been thinking about what I look for when sourcing a new trainer to help me and my dog. I thought it might be useful to share the elements that I need from my trainer/teacher/coach so that you can look for these when you want to learn something new. They apply to all trainers, not just scentworkers. So whether you want to learn yoga, painting, gardening or dog training, look for these 5 elements so that you (and your dog) have a great learning experience. . . #toptrainers #scentworktrainer #detectordogschool

Let your dog sniff. Walks aren’t about route marches or time. They’re about quality and enrichment. Sniffing is a huge part of that. So take it easy, let your dog stop and sniff, they’ll come back feeling good physically and mentally 😊 . . #letthemsniff #scentwork
