Episode 20: Learning About K9 Nose Work Part 2


Listen Later

In a continuation of last week's episode, we're finishing our discussion with one of the leading K9 Nose Work experts, Kristina Leipzig, about the growing sport of K9 Nose Work! This sport is a less training-intensive option for working with your dogs, and the competitions are set up nicely for those dogs that might be more reactive and less able to work in more complex environments like agility or flyball.

Today we're focusing on what dogs tend to excel in the sport, what training mistakes people make, and more.  

We talked through some of the sanctioning bodies where you can get involved in K9 Nose Work or Scent Work, as it is otherwise known:

NACSW: NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF CANINE SCENT WORK

USCSS: UNITED STATES CANINE SCENT SPORTS

UKC: UNITED KENNEL CLUB

AKC: AMERICAN KENNEL CLUB SCENT WORK
