Description

Camps offer the opportunity for you to develop the skills necessary to compete in the sport of K9 Nose Work®, and provide a model for effective instruction for current and future nose work instructors. We will concentrate on the elements necessary to succeed at the sport and the application of K9 Nose Work® for recreation and increasing a dog’s confidence regardless of interest in competition. The curriculum for camp will cover foundation skills, all levels of exteriors, interiors, container and vehicle searches, improving skills for dogs already working the four required elements, building independent search skills, competition preparation, strategy and rules, handler skills, leash handling techniques, understanding how to read the dogs, motivation and reinforcement, trouble shooting and a variety of other necessary skills, PLUS loads of fun and camaraderie. Each day includes working dogs as well as lectures, demonstrations, or other activities through the day and into the night. We are happy to have nose work enthusiasts come to camp no matter their training methodology or preferred competition venue to learn more about the K9 Nose Work® training techniques and philosophy. We work with dogs that are already on NACSW™ odor from novices preparing for their first Odor Recognition Test to dogs that have earned titles at all levels. All we ask is that you come with an open mind and try our methods if you are bringing your nose work dog. Campers will be learning from the founders of the sport along with accomplished Certified Nose Work Instructors (CNWI). Our camp instructing staff are competent skilled teachers that are also actively involved in many areas of K9 Nose Work® - training, competition, judging, certifying trials, and instruction.
