Scent detection isn’t just for police dogs — it’s a powerful, enriching tool for dogs of all kinds.
Whether you need help to manage your pet’s separation anxiety, work with a K-9 unit, are in need of a service animal*, or want to build a stronger bond through mentally stimulating activities, the Dog Behaviorist Denver scent detection training taps into a dog’s most powerful sense: smell.
Led by our certified dog behaviorist trainer, Bruce, our programs are tailored to enhance focus, build confidence, and channel your dog’s energy.
Winter is a great time for tracking and scent detection training. Bruce is one of the only trainers in the Denver area who does this kind of training, so reach out today: 303-968-6060.
Separation Anxiety
Scent detection training can help soothe dogs with separation anxiety.
Over the course of several weeks, we will help your dog learn to associate specific scents with pleasure and relaxation, thereby easing their anxiety when you are away.
Tracking
Scent detection training is also used in tracking by both professional K-9 units and hobbyist pet owners.
