Description
K9 Nose Work/ AKC Scent Work Level 1 required as a prerequisite! During this class, we are introducing your dog to the 1st target odor “birch”. We will teach you to train your dog to find the target odor and commit to the find and stay with it until you reward. This will get you ready for the Odor Recognition Test (ORT) thru the National Association of Canine Scent Work (NACSW) http://www.nacsw.net/ort-calendar-information/ort-information Even if you don?t want to compete in NACSW, this will be the start for all other search games to come. What you need to bring: – Same as Level 1. What you will need to work your dog at home: An odor starter kit (that you can obtain in class for $10.00) or you can order through http://k9nwsource.com/shop/, 6-8 plastic containers or boxes with lids. There should be 3 to 4 (~1/4-inch diameter) holes in each lid.
