Scent work

Topic: Scent work: Buried sources, Handler Descrimination

If you don’t want to work on these options you CAN work on the current level of searches you are working on! Or you can watch this class and work on it later when you can collect the items. If you want to work during the class on these new exercises here are items you would need.

  • 3 bins or containers: small plastic totes (like ones you might store shoes in), empty quart sized yogurt containers that have been through the dishwasher

  • Play sand (new- can find at hardware stores- craft stores) How much you need depends on the size of your containers, you will need enough that once you put your scent source in, you can have 3-4 inches of sand on top.

  • Metal tea strainer ball (will hold the scent source)

  • Clean cooking cooling racks or some heavy screening you can cover the sand with so the dog can’t touch it.

  • Gloves (exam gloves, not your winter gloves)

  • 2 clean socks you have NOT touched

  • 1 sock you have touched (good to have it on your for an hour or so to really set it with your scent)

  • Set of tongs to handle the socks you have not touched

  • 3 boxes you HAVE NOT touched unless wearing gloves
