Working on Up! Same hide height, different challenge for each dog. While smaller dogs have to deal with hides over their head earlier than taller dogs, they can develop strategies for dealing with them. Being comfortable putting their paws up can bring the hide within reach, but even if they don't, that committed nose freeze can make it clear what they are focused on.

Last week scent skills students worked on a nose freeze challenge - freeze on the correct easter egg! Since dogs can be disqualified in competition if they disturb the hide too much, learning how to indicate without pawing, pushing, or picking up whatever the scent is hidden is a very helpful skill, and one that tends to need some regular maintenance to keep it from drifting.

There was a CKC scent detection trial in Gravenhurst on the weekend, so many students were able to attend. Congratulations to all of the new title holders, all those that got qualifying scores towards titles, and all of those who gave it their best shot, got a not quite and learned something they can work on for next time.

A huge congratulations to Claire and Stevie on achieving the Elite title!
To achieve this, they must complete
a) Container Search of 16-20 containers with 2 to 4 hides
b) Interior Search of 2-3 rooms with 0 to 5 hides (you have to decide if you have found everything there is to find in one room before you can move to the next)
c) Exterior Search with 0 to 3 hides
all at the same trial. Hides can be up to 4 feet about a stable surface, or buried. Each search can contain up to 3 distractors (often yummy food).
The extra challenge at this level is that all 3 elements need to be passed at the same trial. One false alert, one missed hide and it's a not yet. I'm so proud of them for achieving this!
