Transform your approach to canine scent work with our comprehensive workshops! It's a wonderful opportunity to grow together with your dog, whether you're a passionate hobbyist, an aspiring professional, or an experienced trainer eager to learn more. Our workshops are designed to help you deepen your understanding of scent detection, tracking or mantrailing and build practical skills that will truly enhance your training sessions. Join us and take your canine detection skills to the next level!
Our workshops offer theoretical knowledge and provide you with the opportunity to work directly with your dog. A truly enlightening way to improve your dog training skills through engaging, practical activities. You'll gain unique insights into canine behaviour psychology, scent theory, odour movement, plus other advanced training methods, all while working closely with your own dog and being guided by some of the most experienced and passionate professionals in the scent detection community.
