Beginning Wednesday, September 23 through October 14, from 10:15 a.m. to 11:00 a.m., Dog Dynamics will be offering an additional course called Scent Dynamics – The Nose Knows (Dog Training). This fun class taps into your dog’s powerful olfactory senses and drive to hunt. It builds confidence and exercises your dog mentally and physically. And, it’s all done in a positive way! Appropriate for any dog with a nose, but it is helpful if your dog is comfortable handling confinement in either a crate or a safe spot. Food or toy motivation and basic obedience skills are helpful.
