Scent Work

It is a terrific sport for all kinds of dogs, and is a wonderful way to build confidence in a shy dog.

The team moves at their own pace, very similar to rally-style auto racing.

…as described in a breed’s individual breed standard.

…sit straight in front of the handler, not at an angle or off to one side or the other.

…requiring exceptional training of the animal and coordination of the handler.

…ridding farms of vermin, thus helping conserve and preserve food grains and cutting down on disease.
