Dogs’ olfactory abilities amaze us and what they manage to do with their noses is truly astounding.
Nosework is a sport that uses most natural, amazing dog’s abilities and develops them into perfection.
Nosework is one of the greatest dog sports, making its way to the top most popular canine activities. Inspired by working detection dogs searching for narcotics, explosives, nosework makes it available for everyone. Dogs are searching for essential oils hidden in vehicles, interiors, water, exteriors, and containers and they love it!

Reviews for this course
Another fantastic tromplo course. What is the most important to me, is that You do not need to rush to follow the lessons. Agnieszka individualize the program, so You and Your dog can achive the most. There is always clear feedback and You know what to do next, when to stop and practise more, when to progress.
From content persoective- all lectures are clear and packed with practical informations. Movies with instructions are short and exercises are very well presented. Course is suitable for auditors to follow along but I truly recommand to take course as premium participant, because with Agnieszka's advices You can learn much more also from handling perspective and session design
This is the second course I've done that has been taught by Agnieszka and I enjoyed this one as much as R+ course. Agnieszka is an exceptional tutor demonstrating enviable patience and teaching skills and brilliant problem solving solutions! I always wanted to do nosework with Odie and I loved that the course was broken up into perfect bite size chunks with excellent video demonstrations. We got way further than I was expecting with the content, despite me really learning what works for my boy (thanks to great advice from Agnieszka!), and it has given me lots of work to do to ensure I've got fluent behaviours before we go on to Nosework Stage 2. As with my previous Tromplo course it's made me think so much about the way I train and ensuring I set my dog up for success even if that means 30 second training sessions to prevent "away with the faeries" moments! Thank you so much Aga, me and Odie had a blast! I hope we'll see you soon for Nosework Stage 2 :-)
Nosework Stage 1.
We do some scentwork in the uk but there were a few things that I wanted help with and it’s always good to revisit foundations especially if they have been trained a bit differently. What a huge help it was...and the freeze indication that Pie had (which was a bit messy and meant...”I can smell something vaguely in this area ?”) has been replaced with a lovely precise nose freeze ? Thanks so much to you Aga for your infinite patience and your great suggestions...we are a much better team now! And I’m itching to dive into Stage 2 in July ?
