Successful completion
of one or more Intro to Nose Work classes, and, permission of the trainer.
This class will continue where the Intro to K9 Nose Work class left off, beginning with Primary only, but at some point transitioning to imprinting the dogs on odor by use of "pairing" (i.e. placing the dog's primary reward next to the target odor so the dog can self-reward). |

Permission of the trainer is required for this class.
Intended for dogs that have been introduced to all target odors and that are capable of searching for them with or without pairing. Exercises will be adapted as needed to address varying levels of experience. All dogs should be capable of entering an ORT (Odor Recognition Test) and being successful (if the handler is interested in competing).
