๐ŸŒŸWell done to our two Collie Teams Daisy and Bandit from Scent Class ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿถ, Both teams passed their Scentwork Pre-Trial here in Rathmullan on Saturday ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ…
An intelligent breed with a strong need for mental stimulation Scentwork gives these smart, sensitive dogs something to focus on, channel their energy in a healthy way and give their owners a more balanced and fulfilled companion ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ’ช. While often associated with working with sheep, these two are living their best pet dog life and Scentwork has become their alternative job ๐Ÿ’š
Both dogs are now on the path to developing their scenting skills further and we look forward to following their journeys ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’–. Well done to both teams and exciting adventures ahead in the world of Scent ๐Ÿ’ฅ

๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ”An incredible two days in Castleward, Downpatrick ๐ŸŒฟwith some of our Wed night seriously committed dogs (and handlers) Track and Trail students (and my own dog too) with SIFD Founder Wesley Visscher and Instructor Elliot Connor. While we upskilled on our handling techniques, learned how to cover larger areas and follow more complex trails ๐Ÿ”, our clever dogs learned how to follow human scent with real-life scent challenges ๐Ÿ‘ฃ and identify articles left behind ๐Ÿšจwhile building precision, focus and confidence. We couldnโ€™t be more proud of our teams ๐Ÿ’š and the photos say it all, concentration and teamwork ๐Ÿพ Huge thank you to Snifferpaws NI for organizing this event, we had an absolute blast and canโ€™t wait to apply all the additional skills we learned this weekend โœจThis is what it looks like when your dog gets to do what they were born to do! ๐Ÿ•๐Ÿ”Žโžก๏ธ๐Ÿ‘ƒ

๐Ÿ‘Double success for Team Tillie and Team Ava at the Scentwork L1 Trials in Belfast at the wkend. ๐Ÿพ Both teams were awarded a Clean Sweep Rosette for successfully finding all hides within the given times in both the indoor and outdoor elements of the trial โ€“ a brilliant achievement that reflects the focus and teamwork they have both put into their training.
Remember Ava? At 11yrs young Ava passed her Scentwork Pre-Trial here in Rathmullan only a few weeks ago and now picking up a clean sweep in her very first official trial ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ’ช , an amazing result for a new student of the scentworld! (Ava reckons age is truly just a number ๐Ÿ’– ๐Ÿถ)
๐ŸŒŸMeanwhile Team Tillie flew through the trial placing 2nd overall, a well-earned result and always a joy to watch this team in action!! ๐Ÿฅˆ๐Ÿ•
Weโ€™re incredibly proud of both teams and excited to watch your scentwork journeys unfold ๐Ÿ‘ ๐Ÿ”ฅ
