Home again from a very interesting scent detection course 🚗

Me and Willow jumped in the car and drove 7 hours (!) on Friday to Hällefors, where we attended a very interesting scent detection course. We started imprinting her on black tea and she was very confused to start with, but slowly she picked up what she should do.

It was incredibly interesting to see how frustrated and confused she was to start with, and then seeing her calm down and getting more and more focused. We will take this learning and keep working on her being more calm and focused when searching.

Our new garden is full of the invasive Spanish slug. 🐌
So I decided to try and teach Willow to find them, as our first scent detection project! 💡

For the first session I trapped slug and got Willow out for a quick clicker training session. Let’s see if we mange to get this scent imprinted before winter. ❄️

Tricky search in the rain yesterday. Love to see when she catches the scent!

It’s so rewarding when you see all your hard work pay off! 💪🏻

Willow has been a little nervous in new places, especially around loud noises, barking dogs, and busy environments in general.

Several times a week, I’ve driven into our small but busy local town to slowly expose her to new experiences. Some days she’s been brave, while other days she’s put her tail between her legs and just wanted to go home. I’ve tried my best not to push her and always take things at her own pace.

At home, we also have “the adventure barn”, where I bring out strange new objects for her to explore and play with every week.

Today, all that hard work really showed when we took a trip to the train station. There was a loud tractor scraping the road, a train whizzing past, and people walking around—and Willow was so happy to explore it all! We even did a tricky Kong search on a tractor, which she solved brilliantly.

So proud of her today! 🥰

P.S. Swipe right to see the start of her little hairdo! 😂

First line-up done!! 🎉
She comes in like a wrecking ball but she finds the Kong no problem. 👌

I realise my marker word is not so great, because she basically ignores it here 🙈 it could also be the high arousal level. Will try a clicker next time.

A little clip from our morning walk. 🐾
We practise a little heel waking, a little recall and search training of course!

I’ve been working on keeping the Kong close to her start line because she does rush out to the grass to start with and I want her to start using her nose straight away. This time she did really well!

I have also just got my new large scent pots so we will be trying lineups soon. So excited!
