In reply to Houndstooth. Yeah, there's something about the tracking aspect of nose work that I can see being quite popular with men. Maybe you can get your husband started on investigating?

In reply to Kristine. Nose work really is a good enrichment activity for indoors. Shiva definitely sounds like a good candidate. If there's some interest, I'll post a quick summary of the steps we did in class at the end so other folks can try it at home.

I’m hoping we have one open up around here sometime soon, because I think my husband and Morgan would really like it. It sounds like a lot of fun!

A local trainer offers tracking classes in the spring and fall but we have yet to try as we have been so busy with dog sports. But I’ve always been curious about it. One of the games we play on a rainy day is “find the treat”. I put kibble inside a toilet paper roll, fold up the ends and then hide it somewhere in the house. Shiva then has to find it. It takes up less time than it used to, unfortunately.

I am so glad Honey is enjoying herself. I look forward to reading more!
