For teams that are proficient at finding and indicating target odor, our advanced course will take your scent detection skills to the next level. 

What you'll get:

• Learn how to systematically  search interior areas.
• Learn a progressive approach to introducing distractions that works so well our novice students pass up a rotisserie chicken on a table at the start line.
• Tackle false alerts by teaching your dog to search clear areas (where target odor is absent) early, without losing any motivation. The secret is making it a game!
• Train your dog to navigate to hides that are elevated from 2 – 4 feet, even if your dog is small. Don’t believe the hype! Even a puppy can do it.
• Increase your dog’s distance and independence, as well as your confidence and teamwork.
• Learn how to reward to minimize errors and confusion. Clear communication tells your dog when to stay at a hide and when to leave; it’s a win-win situation for every search.
• Learn about Clever Hans and why it matters when you're handling blind and double-blind searches.
• You’ll get demonstration videos of dogs learning using our rewards-based motivational approach that has already worked for certified detection dogs, service dogs and nosework champions. 
• 6 months access to the lessons.
• Get answers to your questions on our world-wide, supportive, private Facebook student discussion group.
• Troubleshooting and coaching is included in the price.
