Scent Articles

I would say scent articles is one of the most difficult things to teach your dog. However with Brittanys, we have an advantage as they love to use their nose.

Copper is halfway there and we are working on proofing. We have half the articles in the pile now and are slowly adding loose ones in. We are using the tie down method.

Tonight was the first night I had half the articles loose.

That's great that he is doing well. I got a new book before Christmas called the Clicked Retriever & it has a section about teaching the scent articles. I'm hoping to make use of the whole book soon. Although, Tanner will willingly open his mouth & accept anything I hand to him right now. Even the metal article which he doesn't care for the taste.
