Snifferdog sport fall class in Germantown MD

Interesting scent transport exercise in class. The dogs had to actually get their nose inside the bush in the sun before they smelled the source.

The Montgomery County is gearing up for their fall snifferdog sport class. Come spend Saturday mornings with your dog.

Next class scheduled for Snifferdog Sport in Sykesville

September 7, tuesday evening the Humane Domaine folks are combining the snifferdog sport program with some of the nosework program.

Snifferdog Sprot Demo

Snifferdog Sport had a great time doing an instinct test to support the friends of Downs Park in Pasadena MD. Downs Park has a dog beach on the bay! The perfect combination sniffing, treats, and a quick dip after for those lucky dogs!

Snifferdog Sport Event Silver Spring



August 8,
We had a turn out for the snifferdog sport event at the park in Silver Spring. The dogs had the coolest morning of the summer to find the articles hidden in 4 sectors.

The July event in Montgomery County was cancelled due to the heat! The nice thing about snifferdog sport is that it is all about having fun with the dogs. If it will put animals or people at risk there is no sense doing it. Have fun but play safe preferably in the AC!

Congratulations to the Department of Parks & Rec. class

Wow these folks are dedicated! They turned up every Saturday morning to train their dogs in the heat of the summer. We had to move the class from 11:30 to 8:30 because of the temperatures. The dogs ALL did great!
Graduation was July 24.

Photos & Map from The June Little Bennett Sniffer-Cache





Runs June 6 to July 10
Remember if you do take your dog to the park you and you alone are responsible for you and your dogs safety and behavior at all times. Follow all park rules and do not do anything to get anyone hurt.
Having said that have fun! There are small notebooks with the cache please leave us a note!


Sniffer-Caching

For more information on Geocaching visit www.geocaching.com
Your at the right place for information on Snifferdog Sport.
Sniffercaching is a combination of the two. We put up an event on Geocaching the articles are scented. With Vanilla scent. If you start your dog and work the areas there are log books when you find the scented cache. Leave us a note we will try to post them when the event is over. We found in experiments the dogs found the scented articles a month later so we are leaving the event up for a month then we will remove it.
Lisa is going to make a map and post it. I am going to try to figure out how to get the coordnates onto the geocaching site.
It should be fun.

Key-Lar pet resort

We had a real nice visit with the folks at the Key-Lar pet resort in MI June 1.
Nice people and real nice dogs!

Classes Starting Montgomery County Department of Parks and Recreation

FMI on the classes they offer visit www.montgomercountymd.gov/rec

The class looks like a good group of folks, but we moved the time to early am because the heat of the day made it hard for the dogs to do scent work in the summer in MD.
