1. Improving Indication – Are you struggling to identify if your dog is showing interest, investigating or actually indicating? Is your dog: dabbing/double dipping/waiting for a secondary cue/missing targets/focusing on you? This 2 hour workshop will provide you with simple drills & skills to improve the indication wherever the hide, whatever the environment…

2. Multi-finds – Our dogs are capable of understanding a whole plethora of cues as long as they are communicated clearly & effectively. This 2 hour workshop will help you inform your sniffing genius whether they have found a new hide or one that they have already told you about & create a dog that it has happy to ‘work on’ without getting stuck or without causing conflict with either the odour or yourself as the handler, within search areas. Understanding you & your dog are a team, this workshop will improve already strong relationships as the communication & bond strengthens further.

3. Patterning – (Systematic searches). Are you ready to tackle search areas in a logical fashion? Approaching searches with a pattern in mind will allow your dog to systematically search a given area thus being more economical with energy, perhaps improving time taken & giving a better chance for you to confidently call ‘all found’ or ‘all clear’. This 2 hour workshop will give you opportunity to practice simple patterns & give you the know how to tackle larger & more complicated areas.

Secure a place on your preferred workshop(s)

Tea/Coffee/Biscuits will be available all day. Please bring own drinking receptacle.
