Whether you are starting from scratch with a young dog or working on advanced skills, Kevin will work with dogs of all levels. Detection and scent work aren’t just for working K9s- it can be one of the most mentally enriching activities you can offer your pet. Dogs are built to use their noses, and giving them structured scent work taps into their natural hunting drives in a way that burns mental and physical energy, builds confidence, and is fun for both the dog and the handler. Detection/Scent work is a great activity for dogs of almost any age or physical ability, and can be used for competitive nose work, or for shed hunting or other forms of detection. This is a great opportunity to get started or to hone your existing skills with one of the best trainers in the field.
