The HARDEST thing to teach in tracking:

It’s really not getting your dog to follow a scent.

Or to turn corners.

The thing that you most likely struggle with is…

Teaching your dog to figure it out when it loses the track… without your help.

In a real mission, you can't show your dog where to go.

You don't know where the track is either.

If your dog looks to you every time it hits a difficult moment, it will fail the missions that matter most.

This is why independence is everything.

When my dog briefly loses the track, I don't say a word.

I just wait…

Until the dog finds it again.

If I helped it, it would learn to stop trying and just wait for me to bail it out.

That's the difference between a dog that completes a track in a busy parking lot full of distractions, cars, and dozens of crossing scent trails…

And a dog that gives up as soon as things get “complicated.”

If you want to solve this tracking problem…

And get a dog that can reliably track in 60 days…

👇How I make the fastest working dog progress you’ve ever seen:

If you're a police dog instructor, K9 handler, detection dog trainer, SAR team member, or work in customs or defense with working dogs…

This might be the most important post that lands on your feed all week.

When it comes to dog training progress, most handlers are “okay” with inconsistent results.

One day your dog completes a new exercise well… just to forget everything tomorrow.

So you can’t be confident in your approach…

Which makes you stressed because you fear your dog might fail in a real mission.

And yet, when your training sessions don’t progress as you wish…

You just shrug it off and say “it’s fine.”

But if you want to get results like:

Getting a reliable tracking dog in 60 days…

Teaching flawless detection in just a few short weeks…

Or anything in bite work, retrieving, or obedience – WITHOUT spending thousands of dollars on coaching…

You should check out something I almost never mention on social media.

👇You’re trying to teach NEW exercises using toys…

No wonder your dog is failing.

When you use toys right away, your dog ends up being too focused on earning the toy.

It no longer thinks clearly, and your progress flatlines.

Instead…

Teach new exercises in “low-drive”.

That doesn’t just mean using food rewards instead of toys.

It means putting your dog in a state where it is calm enough to think clearly…

Make firm, correct decisions…

And learn effectively with full focus.

Of course…

Training with food often keeps the dog in that state.

Dogs don’t get as excited about food as they do about toys…

Plus, you can repeat exercises more quickly using food.

The dog just swallows it, and it’s ready to go again.

This is how we get dogs that can work with ultimate motivation…

While still being incredibly focused and precise.

If you want to do the same thing…

As well as see exactly when & how to switch to toys for even more motivation…

👇Use distractions in training WITHOUT ruining the session:

I see handlers make this mistake ALL the time (no joke)...

You start teaching detection…

And almost immediately start training in areas full of other scents and distractions.

The dog hasn't learned the target scent yet, or the detection behavior…

And now it also has to ignore everything else around it.

Progress slows down, the dog keeps making mistakes, and you think the dog just isn't good enough.

But the dog isn't the problem.

The approach is.

The way I do it is different.

First, I teach detection completely separately from distractions.

And separately from that, I teach my dogs not to touch food or other tempting things during socialization.

Only once the dog can do both on its own do I combine the two.

And even then, when I introduce a distraction like sausage, I temporarily go back to a larger scent source.

Because the exercise just got harder…

So I make the target easier to find again.

After a few sessions, I make the scent smaller again, and the dog has no problem.

I made a NEW detection guide that shows exactly how to go from 0 to having a dog that can find any scent in a few weeks.

👇 Your dog will NEVER be good at real-life missions without this.

Context.

This is what separates dogs that search calmly and systematically…

And those that just run around sniffing everything without a clear purpose.

(^ Not what YOU want to have!)

Without context, your dog doesn't know:

Should it track a person?

Search for a discarded weapon?

Do a free search?

So it picks something on its own.

And on a real mission, that's a problem.

You don't get a second chance to find that weapon.

The suspect walks free.

And you're left wondering why your dog "just didn't perform."

If you want to train this correctly…

So your dog knows exactly what's expected before a mission even starts…

👇How YOUR dog can find items invisible to the naked eye…

You bring your dog to the scene, and–

“Search!”, you give the detection command.

While it would take a human HOURS to find the same little item, like a bracelet…

You point your detection stick to a few spots where you think the object might be…

And your dog finds it in under a minute.

Note:

In training – you always place the detection stick NEXT to the target…

You don’t touch it.

The item will be secured for analysis, just like at a real crime scene.

After your dog finds the item…

You mark the behavior and reward with its favorite toy.

If you’re part of a search team, but you’re struggling with detection work…

I’ll send you my free guide that shows you EXACTLY how I train detection work from 0 to professional in just a few weeks.

Your dog can't track at elite levels because you're NOT training with the right scent.

Most trainers introduce multiple scents too soon.

The dog hasn't mastered the technique yet…

And now it also has to figure out an unfamiliar scent at the same time.

How is it supposed to learn fast if you train this way?

That's why I always start with my OWN scent.

When the scent is familiar, your dog can focus entirely on technique.

Scent discrimination becomes much easier that way, too.

Because in real tracks…

Your dog has to ignore every wrong scent trail it crosses and keep following the correct one.

If it can't do that reliably…

It will follow the wrong person, indicate the wrong article, and send you in the wrong direction entirely.

(And if you need me to spell it out… that leads to failed missions and horrible consequences.)

But the scent choice is just one piece of it.

In my free guide, I show you the full system I've used for 45+ years to build dogs that track at the highest level…

In busy areas, on hard surfaces, and in real-life conditions.

If you want it so YOU can get a reliable tracking dog in 60 days…

👇The ONLY right thing to do when your dog loses the track:

I’ll admit it.

In hard-surface tracks, my dogs often miss the target by a little bit.

But that almost NEVER causes the dog to give up and fail.

In most systems, the dog searches well…

But if they lose the track for a second – they lose motivation, give up, and ask the handler for help.

Not my dogs (and those of my students!)

They calm down…

Go BACK to the point where they last ‘had’ the track…

And after I give them enough space to be independent…

They find the object every time.

This little ritual of “failing”, trying again, and finding success is VERY important in my system.

The dog should not become restless, run forward, or start circling when it loses the track.

Why?

Shouldn’t the dog just “never fail”?

No.

I can 100% guarantee you that your dog WILL lose the track at some point during a critical mission.

And while most people just shrug their shoulders and say “oh well…”

I developed one of the only tracking systems in the world where your dog can overcome this problem.

Consistently.

How to teach your dog to cross water in 3 steps…

Step 1: Teach the foundation on dry land.

Do NOT start directly at the water… like most trainers do.

Keep it as simple and clear as possible.

Start on land.

Your dog goes to a marker, lies down next to it, and comes back to you.

Step 2: Add shallow water.

The dog already learned the foundation…

And the exercise stays exactly the same.

Again… lie down, cross, and come back.

Step 3: Practice in deeper water.

Once your dog crosses shallow water confidently, you gradually increase the difficulty.

By now, your dog already knows exactly what's expected.

^ This is why you should NEVER start at step 2 or 3.

Elite dog training is MUCH simpler than you think.

In fact, the simpler your method is, the faster and more reliable your results will be.

That’s exactly how I built my method over 45+ years of experience.

I made a free video breaking down everything I know about working dog training.

THOUSANDS of trainers have already watched it and gotten incredible results from it.

This happened to me SO many times as a police dog handler…

You pull up at a crime scene, and you have to find a discarded item, but…

It’s hidden in tall grass.

A human COULD find it by themselves… but it would take them ages.

What’s the best solution?

A dog, of course!

Your dog should be able to search an area of several HUNDRED meters very quickly…

Yet very calmly and methodically.

I have 4 rules when it comes to training dogs that can do both.

And I made a FREE guide showing you exactly how to do that (super fast).

It has already helped thousands of trainers overhaul their training methods.

If you want it…
