Unleash the Fun with K9 Nose Work - https://mailchi.mp/a38df2f0f68f/unleash-the-fun-with-k9-nose-work-16547988
Our next K9 Nosework class begins Tuesday, October 20. 6:30 pm. It is the 1st of 3 6-week courses that teach your dog how to find target odors in containers, on vehicles, inside a building or out anywhere. This sport is an excellent brain game for your dog, and is easy for you.
No obedience skills are needed. All dogs work separately from one another so this benefits dogs who are shy or easily distracted. Questions? Contact us.

Ahhh… Giant dog, jumps on grooming table when asked. And puts up with ears, nails, trimming and brushing for 45 min or more. Nothing grumpy, nothing difficult. Good boy, Summit. 💕
The benefits of early body handling! Not just petting, but teaching our pups to be still
and cooperative for care. We teach this in detail in Puppy Kindergarten. Sarah follows up with more handling activities.
Don’t you think this is more important than “my dog knows sit”.
Let’s start with confidence, impulse control, focus, and cooperation!
