Whether you’re a first-time dog owner or a seasoned pet parent, this course makes it simple (and fun!) to tap into your dog’s most powerful sense—and give them a job they’ll love.

In this more advanced class, we transition from searching for food to searching for Birch, a foundational odor used in K9 Scent Sports. This is how bomb- and drug-detection dogs start their careers—by learning to target a specific scent!

You’ll build on the confidence and curiosity developed in Nosework 101 by introducing more complex search setups that challenge your dog’s problem-solving ability and deepen their understanding of the game.

Prerequisite:
Completion of Dog Nosework 101 is strongly recommended before enrolling in this class.

What makes Dog Nosework 102 special?

• Introduces dogs to Birch, a recognized scent used in competition
• Builds advanced search skills through progressive challenges
• Keeps dogs mentally engaged with more independent problem-solving
• Offers that “wow” factor—great for handlers who want a fun, impressive skill set
• Still self-paced, accessible, and beginner-friendly, but with a cool, new twist to the game!
