Tracking

Very proud of both girls.

Phoenixx and Coffee have passed the first 3 tracks to gain their Tracking Dog titles.

Tracking is a dog sport that harnesses a dog's natural scenting ability to follow a scent trail and locate articles left behind by a person, known as the tracklayer. It is a structured activity that mimics real-world search-and-rescue scenarios, teaching dogs to work independently while staying focused on a specific trail.

The sport is designed to test a dog’s ability to differentiate scents, follow a track, and indicate any objects dropped along the way. In competitions, the track may be anywhere from twenty minutes to three hours old, adding an additional challenge to the dog’s ability to detect and follow the scent.

What are the Benefits of Tracking? Tracking provides dogs with both mental and physical stimulation, allowing them to use their most powerful sense—their nose—in a structured and rewarding way. The sport enhances a dog’s problem-solving skills and confidence, as they must independently follow a trail without visual cues
