Nosework

[DobieMum]

With my obedience club, we're playing with some nose work fun and my little girl is getting quite good at it, though we're only at beginner stages.

What I'm wondering, is the competition side over here in Aystralia yet and who does it? I know it's not ANKC, but is it here?

There's some info on another post. Will dig it up when home. On phone at moment.

[~Rumour~]

There are a few dedicated individuals working towards the competition side.

Have a look at this site for some more information http://acsw.co

I'm on my phone so I can't see where you are located DobieMum?

In Perth, so it'll be a long time coming ???? but if I'm travelling for something else, I can add it in too ????

If it's anything like the the U.S Nosework scene, the ACSW won't be able to keep up with the demand for trials. There can be waiting lists of over 100 people to get into a trial here through the NACSW. To their credit, they could increase trials but only really at the expense of quality and expertise. The UKC has started it's own version which should hopefully reduce pressure on the NACSW.

Nosework will for sure take off at an exponential rate in Aus. You could always start up a club and host ACSW sanctioned trials.
