CONGRATULATIONS WILLOW AND BISCUIT ⭐️

Willow and Biscuit not only passed their Find The Keys course by locating their owner’s lost keys, but….

Biscuit completed the open area search in a speedy 22 seconds!!!!! 👏😱👏🤯

They have both learnt to search for their owner’s scent by following both airborne trails and tracks left behind by crushed grass!!

Great work both and well done on achieving First Place Biscuit 🔑🥇⭐️

ANOTHER SNIFF OFF?!? JOIN US ON SATURDAY 2ND AUGUST 🐾🏆🥇

If you’ve completed any of our group class assessments, you’ll know that your dog must locate double-blind hides by indicating at the source within the allocated time.

Your dogs ace each station, and I love to see the competitiveness between you all on who had the quickest times…

So in this time trial, we are upping the ante… your dog will have a go at clearing the entire hall to locate of the blind hides - as one whole area rather than in mini stations!

We will open with 10-15 minute warm up. Before breaking out into timeslots for your 1:1 time trials!

Winners will be announced at the end, with brand new show rosettes for 1st-3rd place! 🥇🥈🥉

CONGRATULATIONS BUZZ AND WOODY 🔑🚀🤠

Buzz and Woody have both successfully indicated on their owners lost keys in an open area search; meaning that they have a good chance at finding their keys if this was to accidentally happen on dog walk 😍👏🐾

Buzz and Woody have learnt to search for their owner’s scent by following both airborne trails and tracks left behind by crushed grass!!

Great work both ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Top job Kody ❤️⭐️🎉

A hugggggeeee congratulations to Kody and Laura for passing their Silver Award with flying colours! It feels like just the other week that we were celebrating his Bronze Award! 🐾🥉🥈

He completed his assessment in under four minutes and only missed one of the blind hides due to time allocations 👏

I look forward to reigniting our 1:1 sessions for the Gold UK Sniffer Dog course! 🏆🥇🏆

Their noses were officially ON! 🐾🕵️🔑

We’ve wrapped up the very first session of our “Find the Keys” workshop and I couldn’t be more proud of each dog and handler team! 🔥

Everyone came ready to work and have fun! By the end of the first session, all dogs were eagerly searching for their owner’s lost keys in an open area! Watching the dogs start to connect the dots was pure magic. 💙

Thanks for your effort team, in the next session, we will progress our scenting stamina and indications 👏

Yesterday morning, bright and early at 7am, we met the rocket of a dog - Woody! 🐾🚀

Woody is a trained Gun Dog taking on another venture with scent detection, and he absolutely flew through his first session 👏

Once we teach dogs how to use their nose for work, it’s quite easy to imprint other odours. But the challenge with our Gun Dogs… is to get them adjusted passive indications rather than active retrieves, and on lead searches rather than free trailing through open areas…. etc!🐕🧠

Lovely to meet you both, I can’t wait to see how far he comes along with his new adventure 🐾

WELCOME TO BRONZE EVERYONE👇👇 🐾🥉

This lovely group woke up nice and early this morning for their first ever UK Sniffer Dog Bronze class! 😎👏

Welcome to The Scent and Search Academy…
👋🏼 Milo
👋🏼 Bebe
👋🏼 Bigby
👋🏼 Seamus
👋🏼 Buster

With the morning timeslot and an indoor venue, we dodged the forecasted temperatures.
But the early start didn’t affect their performance - within their first session they are already eagerly searching for the target odour! We have a really clever group of dogs here 😍👏🐾

Well done team!

😭⭐️ CONGRATULATIONS ⭐️😭

I’m absolutely chuffed to bits to announce that Honey, Sidney and Laggy have all officially passed their Gold Level UK Sniffer Dog Assessments with flying colours! 🌟🐶

After a total of 18 weeks of putting up with me, they have proven they’ve got what it takes to master a variety of different scents, challenges and techniques. I hope they will agree with me when I say I have truly had so much fun with this group, they have been a pleasure to train with

I am SO proud. Well done to you team🏅💛

Imagine yourself walking your dog on a beach which is over 457 metres long, 15 metres wide and 14 inches deep… your dog is technically capable of identifying a SINGLE grain of sand that smells different to the other grains on that beach… 😳

You may not realise that your dog is naturally this good and will be using this ability everyday, but in a way that benefits them.

My job, is to teach your dogs how to apply it onto other tasks which will win them lots of rewards… 🎾🍖😋

In our classes, the aim is to get their brains working, improve their focus and leverage their natural instincts, rather than trying to squash them!

Next time you go to a beach… imagaine that single grain of sand!
If you’d like to finesse your dog’s natural ability to use their nose, we have two beginner’s group classes starting on…
