Sassy's urban trail was AMAZING! Fantastic to watch her figure out where the odour went πŸ˜€

We often think we know people from what they do, but there's usually more to the story.

I've had some unexpected chapters along the way, picked up a few interesting qualifications, and somehow managed to lose track of my own age for a couple of years! πŸ˜‚

Here's a little peek behind the scenes at the person behind Cheeky Wee Rascals.

Archie 😍

Finishing off our 121 Puppy Package today.

What a huge difference in Archie since our first session, especially with his mat training! Settle on a mat can provide an alternative behaviour for so many things; jumping up, countersurfing. Its also a great thing to learn to help your dog settle in new environments like cafes and training classes 🐾

Well done Archie and his humans!

Who's done this?

Had a wee snoop on someone's social media? Flicked through their stories for a nosey?

Sent them a friend request? HELL NO! πŸ˜†

You were just gathering information, weren't you?

That's exactly what many dogs are doing when they come over for a sniff, especially nervous or unsure dogs. They're gathering information.

Don't mistake a sniff for a friend request.

Don't assume they want to be touched. In fact, it's usually best to assume they don't.

Let them sniff. Let them learn that you're not a threat. Then, maybe, they'll decide they'd like to interact more.

And that hand people hold out for a dog to sniff? They don't need it. Dogs can smell you perfectly well without it.

For many nervous dogs, a hand reaching towards them can actually feel threatening and add pressure to an interaction that should be entirely on their terms.

🐾 A wee intro to me- Hazel of Dogs On The Scent 🐾

Dogs have been my life forever. I first worked with dogs as a youngster in local boarding and rescue kennels. My obsession remained life long.

Today I'm a qualified Trail Hunt International (THI) Instructor, a qualified World Scent Dog Instructor, and I'm currently studying both THI Level 2 and a Level 6 Diploma in Clinical Canine Behaviour.

My fox terrier Sassy chose me in 2018 and we've been avidly involved in all forms of nosework since 2019. Together we've achieved Mantrailing Global Level 3, UK Sniffer Dogs Gold and UK Scent Sport League Master Levels. Etc.

Since January 2026, I have been hosting Trail Hunt International sessions for beginners, progressing teams and assessments through the most wonderful Cheeky Wee Rascals. Now I am expanding out on my own.

My aim is simple: positive training trailing- encouragement and fun for both ends of the leads.

Thanks for following along. I'm looking forward to sharing more Trail Hunt International adventures and achievements.

Its been a fantastic weekend; trails have been technical, tracking the dogs has been AMAZING, four new teams joined the fun, and we had three trail hunt assessment passes!
