Barn Hunt and urban Locating
Come try this exciting scent work option! Your dog will learn to find a rat (enclosed in a tube or cage). You will enjoy watching your dog use his nose and his natural instincts in a safe environment.
We currently offer urban locating lessons - the dog hunts for a rat in the training area, or outdoors. We will offer barn hunt in straw when it is cooler (November).
Benefits
- Dog works by himself - no requirement that he be well-behaved around other dogs
- Dog uses his natural instincts and satisfies his need for exercise and enrichment
- No requirement that the handler be in shape or quick
- Relatively fast onboarding - dogs that like the sport are able to hunt and enjoy themselves within a few weeks
- Dogs that are challenging from an obedience perspective may thrive in a sport that channels their drive and enthusiasm
