Nosework

Nosework is a fun sport in which dogs must locate any and  all hidden target scents within a  designated area and alert the handler  to the location. It is a true partnership sport in which both ends of  the leash must rely on one another.  This activity promotes confidence and provides mental stimulation, ideal for shy, elderly  or disabled dogs.  

Come learn from our resident Nosework Expert, Randi, who has titled in both CKC and SDDA,  as well as Barn Hunt. She is also currently the Scent Detection Representative, Zone 9 - Saskatchewan with the Canadian Kennel Club (CKC).
