"Oh, can you sit for a treat, Birdie?"
"Of course I can, Julie. I'm not only a wiz at nose work, my foster Mom Jennifer is helping me with obedience basics!"

This year-old cutie is still available for adoption in Anniston, AL. Message me if you'd like more details!

Graduation was delayed as we dealt with humans' cracked ribs and busted knees, but finally the whole class completed Intro to Nose Work 1! Let's congratulate Amy with Dallas, Jennifer with Koda (and OMG, look at Koda rip up the certificate...) and Laura and Maggie. BTW Koda and Maggie are fosters and still looking to continue nose work with a forever family - msg me for more info.

I have enough students on the wait list to start a new class (or maybe two) next month. If you've been thinking about getting into the nose work fun, go to my Dog Talk with Julie website and fill out the "Contact Us" form to be included!

Cost is $140 and all you need is a hungry dog, a leash and collar, and some yummy treats! (Well OK you need some paperwork too.

This week’s advanced nose work dogs got introduced to luggage searches. We ran each dog three times and paired the hide the first two times. Here’s Bosch, Buddy, Buddy Boxer, Arlo and Chip having a blast and enjoying the years of travel odors on the suitcases!

Shout out to Leah Gangelhoff, CNWI, who presented this concept at a NW camp to help dogs source the hide more accurately.

Don’t forget, Buddy Boxer is our rescue dog still looking for love in a new forever home – he’s at Rockin P Rescue in Jacksonville AL!

Kitty, kitty, kitty! One of my students is caring for a feral Momma cat that had kittens. This one is the smallest and is adorable. We think female but not sure. Anyone looking to add a blue-eyed kitten to their family? PM me if interested.

What a great week to celebrate - TWO graduations from Introduction to Nose Work classes! Here's Jennifer and Birdie, Lee and Judd, and Debbie with Lainey, from Tuesday's class. Next, Angie and Star, Amy and Lenny, Angie with Sully, and Angie and Tyson all in Thursday's class. Congrats all around!

Hmmm, why is there a red heart❤️next to Birdie, Star and Tyson? All 3 are rescue dogs, learning a new skill as they wait for their forever family. If they touch your heart, reach out to Rockin P Rescue or PM me to learn more.

We are only 4 weeks into our new Intro to Nose Work class, but Birdie seems to really "get it!" This week we introduced vehicles. Look at her pull to get into the search area, and she quickly discovered that bumpers pay.

I'm highlighting Birdie as she is currently being fostered and looking for a forever home. She's got some separation anxiety issues, but not when doing nose work - she becomes very independent! Birdie's about a year old. I'll keep you posted on her nose work progress.

Here's some pics of my other Intro to Nose Work class pups having a great time searching! Birdie is currently being fostered and is looking for her forever home. In the meantime, she loves nose work and is a great independent searcher.

OMG Lainey is as gorgeous as she is a strong searching machine! Look at her push between the pole and the chair to reach the hide.

And Judd was just recently adopted and living his best life which includes figuring out that boxes on chairs pay!
