Tracking is great fun and gives our dogs so much fantastic, natural, motivational exercise using one of their most powerful tools - their nose. When tracking, you dog is following a ground scent made by a human or dog, following the scent on different surfaces, and through different environments, weathers and conditions.
Tracking isn’t just about following a scent—it’s about learning to work as a team with your dog knowing that your dog know far better than you! Whether you’re looking for an exciting activity to enjoy together or need a way to help your dog focus and tune out distractions, tracking offers a unique and rewarding experience for both of you.
Many of the dogs I work with struggle in some situations around other dogs, people, or the environment. Tracking gives them a clear purpose—a job that helps them switch into work mode rather than worrying about what’s around them. And as they focus, you learn how to support them effectively.
One of the biggest benefits of tracking is that it teaches both dog and handler how to switch between work and relaxation. It’s not about keeping them tracking all the time—sometimes they need to step aside, reset, and then return to their work.
And pne of the most important reasons to try tracking - you end up with a happy and tired dog!
Tracking isn’t just about what your dog does—it’s about what you do, too.
🐾 Understanding when they’re on track, when they are not, and when to step back and trust them.
🐾 Developing handling skills that help you feel more confident and not interfere with your dog's natural abilities.
🐾 Dealing with real life situations, learning when and how to step aside, and re-engage with tracking so distractions become less overwhelming.
