LAY LO Sessions: K9 Nose Work
K9 Nose Work: Unleash Your Dog’s Inner Tracker
Your dog’s nose is their superpower—and K9 Nose Work is how you tap into it. This scent-based game turns your pup’s natural hunting instincts into an enriching, confidence-building activity that engages their mind and body.
In this live, instructor-led session, we’ll show you how to get started with the K9 Nose Work methodology, using food or toy-based searches to kick things off. You’ll learn how to create simple yet challenging scent games at home that encourage independent problem-solving, boost focus, and give your dog a fun job to do. Whether your pup is anxious, energetic, or just loves a challenge, Nose Work offers a powerful outlet for their natural instincts.
You’ll walk away with:
✅ A step-by-step guide to beginning K9 Nose Work at home
✅ Techniques for building your dog’s confidence and focus through scent play
✅ Easy setups for indoor and outdoor search games
✅ Expert insights on progressing to more advanced scent work (and even competition!)
A mutli-session pack also includes:
✅ Advanced 4-week curriculum guided by your expert
