Did you know your dog's nose is estimated to be 10,000 to 100,000 times more powerful than yours? Join our dog scentwork workshop in Forteviot, Perthshire, and discover how nose work can transform your dog's confidence and focus.

Scentwork isn't just for working dogs. It's an enriching and rewarding activity for all dogs, and we're here to show you how to get started!

I'm thrilled to be teaming up once again with Dr Julia Taylor (Bespoke Dog Training) for this exciting dog enrichment workshop in Perthshire. Using only force-free, positive-reinforcement methods, we'll start by teaching your dog to target, then move on to scent hygiene and correct handling of scent tins to avoid contamination and show you how to build it all into a fun game you can enjoy together long after the workshop is over.

Got a youngster with endless energy that needs a real outlet? A senior dog who can't manage the long walks they used to? Or maybe you just want a fun new activity to enjoy together? Scentwork ticks every box.
