“Our pup Cassie loved it and really enjoyed the challenges laid down and rewards on offer. Susan was great with her and you can tell she has a lot of experience with dogs and a real love of dogs. Cassie fell asleep happy and tired on the way home. We will be back out to see Susan again for the next level and continue the journey into the world of Scent training.” –Mark

We use safe, specially selected target scents that make the game fun and rewarding.
Q: My dog gets overexcited easily – can they still do this?
Absolutely! Scent work is great at helping dogs learn to focus.
Q: Is scent work suitable for older dogs or dogs with limited mobility?
Scent work is perfect for older dogs or those with restricted exercise. It provides mental stimulation and allows dogs to engage in a rewarding activity without physical strain.
Q: Do we need lots of space at home to practise?
Not at all! Scent detection can be practiced in any space, even a small apartment.
We are based in North Kildare, offering classes just 30-40 minutes from Dublin.
