Training aids for nosework dogs

Canine nosework, also known as scent work, is a dog training activity that taps into a dog's natural olfactory abilities. It involves teaching dogs to search for and identify specific scents in various environments, mostly using essential oils.

Originally developed for working detection dogs, nosework has become a popular canine sport and activity for pet dogs. In a typical nosework session, dogs use their sense of smell to locate hidden scents, often in containers, interiors, exteriors, and vehicles.

This mentally stimulating and physically engaging activity provides dogs with both mental and physical exercise, enhancing their natural scent detection skills while strengthening the bond between dogs and their handlers.
