View The World Through Your Dog's Nose
Our roots are in scent work and we approach our classes in a unique fashion.
Many of our students are highly competitive in scent competitions, and we aim to prepare those interested in competition for the highest levels.
Our aim in our classes is always to enhance the relationship between the handler and the dog. We welcome those looking to do scent detection as a form of recreation and enrichment or as part of their theurapeutic treatment plan, without the pressure of needing to compete.
We also offfer our Scentsitive Soul program which is tailored for dogs who are not able to participate in a regular group class. Dogs are never in the building with each other and have plenty of space away from people, We also work on body language awareness in this class, in addition to learn scent detection.
