Discover the fun sport of Mantrailing, suitable for all dogs, including reactive, all breeds welcome, any age including puppies, seniors or anywhere in between.
A dog has a great sense of smell, their ability to identify specific people from their scent is incredible to see.
Dogs of all abilities shapes and sizes share this common skill, which is used by many organisations to trace missing people, trapped in buildings also in different environments.
Here is an opportunity to learn the fun side of a serious skill where working with your dog you will learn how to make that bond stronger, you will learn the value of reward and how to read your dog.
We always begin with an introduction workshop and follow up with increasing challenges through progressive trails, you will learn to trust your dogs judgement and where necessary help with passive influence.
Following up from the introduction workshop you will be able to work through progressive challenges and trails, monitor your progress and work towards assessments.
The dog learns and adapts to the new sensation of obedience free exercise.
