Announcing the Yooper Paws Nosework Club!
This is a group dedicated to Canine Scent Detection Enthusiasts. Members of the group can attend practice sessions with other teams to enhance skills and grow as a human/dog scent detection team. The Yooper Paws Nosework Club is open to all nosework disciplines and skill levels. We will focus mainly on searching for scents, objects, and people, perhaps adding in searching for other dogs when available.
Intro to Nosework Workshop
The first part of the Workshop is now available online for you to work through at your own pace. In this class you will give lots of info about training for competition with AKC & UKC, then we will take a break and give you lots of info about training for family fun such as finding lost objects, mantrailing or locating missing people, and an overview of medical alerts.
For the 2nd part of the workshop you will be paired with a Canine Coach during your first practice session who will help you through activities to help you decide what type of training you want to continue.
The cost is $100 which can be paid via PayPal, Venmo or Cash before the online portion is released to you.
Joining the Club
Once the Intro to Nosework Workshop has been completed, you'll receive an invite to join the FB Group: Yooper Paws Nosework Club. This is where practice sessions will be coordinated. Practice Sessions will cost $10 per session or $40 per month. There will be at least 1-2 sessions per week except for holidays, vacations or extreme weather.
We use a traffic light theory system for the Yooper Paws Nosework Club allowing all dogs regardless of their reactions to people or other dogs to participate. All activities can be tailored to your team's needs.
