Fun Nose Work Classes
Fun Nose Work classes are designed to develop your dog’s natural scenting abilities by using their love of toys, food and exercise. It’s a great way for your dog to have fun, build confidence, and burn lots of mental and physical energy. Whether you’ve had your dog 10 days or 10 years, this is a fun and satisfying game for your dog and an excellent way to build and/or strengthen your bond with your dog.
