There’s a special magic in detection work that’s unlike any other dog sport or activity. While obedience and agility focus on performing set tasks or manoeuvres, detection training gives your dog the freedom to figure things out with their nose. This taps into the dog’s primal instincts, creating a more balanced and fulfilled companion.
You might start noticing changes beyond just training sessions:
  • Your dog might become more engaged with you throughout the day, seeking your guidance and attention.
  • They’ll often display improved calmness and confidence in different environments, because they’ve learned how to process unfamiliar scents.
  • With each successful search, the trust between you and your dog deepens, resulting in a more harmonious partnership.
