Mantrailing Overijssel offers, besides mantrailing, courses in detection, nosework and other search related games. This is a program for pet dogs, not working dogs. Just like police dogs search for narcotics, accelerants, money and tobacco, pet dogs can search for legal specific odors such as essential oils.
Focal points are;
Dog:
- Focus, confidence, emotion, arousal and motivation.
- Working independent.
Handler:
- Reading the dogs body language and a step-by-step approach.
- Handler pressure, practising different variations, double-blind testing and dog-friendly teaching methods (e.g. clicker training).
Classes are taught at multiple indoor locations in the Hardenberg/Almelo area.
We have taken multiple courses and workshops and continue to update our knowledge.
