About Me
I have been training with dogs in many different venues for over 20 years. The activity of letting my dogs' noses do the work, instead of me giving all the commands like other dog sports, captured my heart as I watched my dogs' pure joy in the hunt. After several years of working with my dogs and watching others in this sport, I became a Certified Nose Work Instructor (CNWI) with NACSW (National Association of Canine Scent Work) and love introducing people and their dogs to this engaging, fun activity.
This is an activity any dog - young, old,
rescue, timid, handicapped - can enjoy. I look forward to your dog joining the fun.

These sessions are designed to help your dog find the fun in searching. Using food, toys or whatever motivates them best. You and your dog will start to become a team while practicing different exercises. These will provide the foundations of the sport by building drive and independence. We will start odor with similar exercises to introduce scent to your dog.
Advanced Odor Class - $22 each session
Odor classes involve using competition strength essential oils in the searches. Continuing to build your dog's confidence in searching and letting you know they have "found it" in all types of training scenarios! This can be for having a fun activity to do with you dog or to prepare to compete in trials.
