Introduction to K9 Nose Work® Online
This foundation course is available as a self-paced online course.

All from the comfort of their own home.
This course is ideal for many dogs and their humans who would not usually be able to attend a course: anxious, shy, environmentally sensitive, health issues, live too far away, lockdowns, and so on. No pre-requisites, except for a dog and handler interested in having FUN.
You are given 6 months to complete the course. The cost includes all instructional videos and information, and my support and feedback.
