Scent Classes
About
A dog's sense of smell is so powerful, whereas we "see" the world through our eyes, dogs see everything through their nose.
Humans have around 6 million scent receptors where as the average dog has 150 -300 million! When we go shopping, we can smell the bread the machine is churning out at the back of the supermarket. A dog would smell the eggs, the flour, and anything else that's been added.
Scentwork is suitable for dogs of all ages, and breeds and is great for anxious and reactive dogs.
