Why Do It?
"Scent Work is a positive, challenging activity that allows dogs the opportunity to use their strongest natural sense in a way that’s fun and engaging [...] The sport of Scent Work celebrates the joy of sniffing, and asks a dog to sniff to their heart’s content; turning your dog’s favorite activity into a rewarding game."
-American Kennel Club
Where can it be done?
Scent Work is an activity that can be done at home or outside by anyone with a simple kit.
What kinds of dogs?
Scent Work is mentally stimulating for any dog. It builds the confidence of shy or reactive dogs, and is especially helpful to engage senior dogs or injured dogs.
