September Advanced Nosework Monday in West Roxbury

Topics this session will include exteriors, covering large spaces, and push to source. Prerequisite for this course is Intro to K9 Nose Work, Intro to Odor, and Intermediate Nose Work. Please contact me if you need the prerequisite or have questions. K9 Nose Work is a fun activity for dogs of all ages, sizes, and levels of physical ability. The activity gives your dog the opportunity to use and develop their natural ability to detect odor. This course is a continuation of Intro to K9 Nose Work and Intro to Odor. Dogs will continue their introduction to all three odors used in NACSW (birch, anise, and clove) in this class while continuing to build confidence and independence in searching. For this class, each dog will have time in the building or exterior spaces alone to help build confidence and independence, which means the other dogs in the course will be outside or contained while a dog is working. There will be an informational email after registration that will go over logistics, safety, considerations for all weather conditions, and frequently asked questions. Advanced K9 Nose Work is taught by Aubrey Sperry, CDBC, CNWI, CPDT-KA.
