Scent Discrimination


Recommended Posts

Just had a win with scent discrimination today and wanted to share it. We finally stopped just running up and grabbing any article and sniffed the right one and bought it back. Probably does not sound that exciting but it felt like winning tattslotto to me!

Do others get such a huge kick when they get a break through? :laugh:

Well done!! Thats a great effort! Especially to those of us who wouldn't even know where to start with scent discrimination!! :D

Absolutely! I had the same thing today, one of those fantastic light globe moments and I couldn't get the smile off my face! :laugh:

This is a really topical topic for me, since I've started training this recently too! At the moment we're concentrating on practicing him going out, picking up the cloth, and bringing it back without mouthing or mauling or dropping it. I haven't even introduced more than one cloth yet, since I want to him to really understand the idea of carrying a cloth first. Yes, my dog's a pretty slow learner. :laugh:

I'd be interested in hearing how you taught this to your dog? How did you go about introducing the other cloths?
