Welcome to the "Introduction to Scent Work" event!
Curious about Scent Work for your dog? Join us for an informative and fun introduction to Scent Work Workshop.
Join the Field Spaniel Club of NSW & Steph Betts from Western Sydney Scent Work Club for a fun and informative session all about the exciting world Scent Work. Whether you're brand new to Scent Work or just curious about what goes on, this event is perfect for all dog lovers.
Scent Work is a sport that is based on the task of working detection dogs to locate an odour and communicate to the handler that the odour has been found. Detection is done in a variety of environments and often during changing weather or environmental conditions.
Scent Work is a positive, challenging activity that allows dogs the opportunity to use their strongest natural sense in a way that is fun, engaging, and builds and strengthens a foundation of trust between the handler and dog.
Learn about the different Odours, judging criteria, and what it takes to compete at a Scent Work Trial. Get insider tips from an experienced Scent Work Enthusiast who will be sharing their knowledge and expertise.
Come along to meet fellow dog enthusiasts, ask questions, and maybe even discover a new passion for your furry friend.
All breeds welcome to attend & all dog owners welcome to attend.

We look forward to seeing you all at our Introduction to Scent Work workshop!
