Scentwork Classes

We all know how much dogs love to use their noses...dogs are natural hunters and their sense of smell is far superior to our own.  Scentwork is a highly addictive fun sport (for dogs and humans alike!) that is suitable for everyone - no prior training is required.  It is enriching and exhausting for dogs, and also highly rewarding for the humans! 

Using reward-based methods, we teach dogs to detect a particular odour and then start to hide a piece of scented fabric in boxes, luggage, vehicles, perimeters of buildings and in outside environments.  

Suitable for:

- Puppies that can't yet go out for long walks yet need more mental stimulation
- High drive, working dogs who need to channel their energy
- Elderly/injured dogs that have retired from other dog sports such as agility, but still need a job to do
- Dogs who need to build their confidence

We do also run test trials which are entirely voluntary and extremely fun - rosettes and trophies are awarded for those who pass. 

Classes take place at Nonsuch Scout Hall, Bluegates, Ewell, Surrey, KT17 2SA.
