Scent Detection – Teach Your Dog to Use Their Nose
Give your dog a stimulating job that is fun for both dog and the owners. Witness the power of your dog’s nose. Dogs can be taught to locate a target odor (we use S.D.D.A odors wintergreen, pine, and thyme.) It’s much like narcotics or explosive detection dogs but just for fun. Scent detection engages your dog’s most powerful senses, providing them with a challenging mental workout. The process of identifying and locating scents stimulates their problem-solving skills, enhances their focus, and keeps their minds sharp.
Scent detection skills have practical applications in various fields. Dogs trained in scent detection can assist in search and rescue operations, detect illegal substances or contraband, locate missing persons, or even detect medical conditions. The possibilities are vast, and your dog’s abilities can make a significant difference in various real-life situations.
P.S.A. – Protection Sports Associates

It takes control and courage and requires a lot of dedication, but it is also a ton of fun. If you think you and your dog have what it takes, come in for a free consultation and join this exciting dog sport.
PSA training strengthens the bond between you and your dog through shared experiences, teamwork, and trust-building exercises. The sport requires effective communication and coordination, fostering a deeper connection between you and your furry companion. It provides an outlet for your dog’s physical energy and mental stimulation. The combination of obedience, agility, and protection work challenges their mind and body, promoting overall fitness and well-being.
