In my view, there’s no better way to bond with your dog than by spending time in nature, especially while tracking humans.

Owning a dog is a significant privilege, and we are fortunate to share our lives with them. That’s why it’s essential to make the most of our time together.

Congratulations to Colin and Becks for earning both Level 1 and Level 2 certifications today!

Also, a big shoutout to Maureen and D’arcy for achieving their Level 1 certification.

Thank you to all the handlers and track layers; it was a pleasure having you with us today.

We also had the opportunity to test out the collar mic, allowing us to hear the sounds of the dog actively sniffing while on the track.

I really love this track and have watched numerous times. I love seeing how the pup goes off track then circles back to regain it again.

Seeing the puppy focus and so task oriented is fascinating, and we are only at week 2 of the course. Belgian Malinois Queensland - Feroz Malinois - Breeding & Training Centre providing a great example of the hard work and dedication that they and the other handlers have been putting in during there time on The Blueprint To Hard Surface Tracking online course.

🚨🚨APPLICATIONS NOW CLOSED🚨🚨

Due to the overwhelming response I have had to stop taking applications for Blueprint to Hard Surface Tracking test handler program early to save disappointing too many people.

As we have had large numbers of people apply not everyone who put in an application is guaranteed a spot.

But don’t worry if you missed out on the tester program you will be able to still access the course in its entirety when it is completed, packaged and ready to go.

Thank you all that have applied, I’ll be in contact with you shortly 😊

Hey guys I am looking for a small group of handlers to be testers in my new on-line course “Blueprint to Hard Surface Tracking”

This program is best suited for the handler who is struggling and frustrated with their tracking/trailing progress and wants a way to transform their dog’s tracking/trailing ability from unreliable to dependable.

Being able to trust your dog when on a track is vital in order to achieve the find, and I found no better way to build that trust than by using water intensified hard surface tracking methods.

If you are want to transform your dog tracking/trailing and want to be apart of this exciting project, then head on over to my website where applications can be found

The age old question of what is better tracking or trailing dogs?

In this video I share my insights and experiences from years of working a Police Dog Handler as well as running numerous tracking and trailing workshops.
