Intro to K9 Nose Work ®

This 6-week class will introduce you and your dog to the sport of K9 Nose Work, a fun activity where your dog uses their nose to find specific odors. In this class your dog gets to use their natural ability to follow odor and find food by searching for a treat hidden in boxes while you increase your observation skills. Sniffing is a fun activity that uses dogs’ brains while being easy on their joints, so it's particularly beneficial for young or senior dogs. This class is open to future therapy dogs, current therapy dogs, and pet dogs. Dogs must be at least six months old. This is payment only and does not enroll you in the class; you must confirm your enrollment with a HABIC trainer. Email Kate.J.Miller@colostate.edu. HABIC class fees are nonrefundable. Makeup sessions are not available for missed classes. Participation in HABIC classes does not guarantee certification.
