Nosework 

K9 Nose Work is a unique activity and sport inspired by working detection dogs and developed into an enriching and bonding activity for you and your companion dog. This is a fun scenting activity and sport for all dogs and people. It is easy to learn, builds confidence and is a safe way to keep dogs fit and healthy through mental and physical exercise.

​K9 Nose Work starts with the ‘box game’, using your dog's favorite food or toys to encourage your dog to begin searching boxes. The box game develops the dogs’ hunt drive and desire to search. The game then expands to searching entire rooms, exterior areas, and vehicles. Essential oils are introduced as 'target odors' as your dog progresses. 

There are no requirements to begin K9NW— dogs of any age with no obedience experience can start training. Within the group class structure, dogs work individually (dogs rest in their crates between runs) so dogs with fears are welcome. 

We recommend all puppies start in AKC S.T.A.R. puppy class. This class provides the building blocks for good companions as well as competition, oriented basics. 

All classes at PDTC are taught with positive, motivational methods. They are intended to be fun for both the dog and the owner.

Confirmation

Show Handling is designed to prepare dogs to be shown in the conformation ring at Dog Shows and is open to all dogs over the age of 3 months.  This class is appropriate for handlers and dogs at all levels of proficiency, as it will be adjusted to fit the teams that attend each night.  
Handlers and dogs will learn how a dog is examined by a judge, gaited and stacked at a dog show.  Handlers will learn ring procedure, how to best present their dog, about the various classes and competitions at dog shows, as well as general dog show protocol.
