A workshop is a shorter training session (4 hours or so) with just one instructor focused on one or two topics. Workshops give you the opportunity to refine specific areas of your training. You can sign up below.
Carris Reels has expanded! We have some new areas to search! Live Coaching means you decide how you want to run the searches to meet your current training needs. You can run searches with known amount and/or location of hides. Maybe you want to focus leash handling or reading your dog. You can even run the searches "blind" with the life line option where we only intervene if needed. Do you have more than one dog in detection sports with different areas needing work? Bring them both! You can run a different dog for each element but you only get one shot to search in each element. Searches will be set to be challenging for NW1 & 2 /Novice & Advanced Levels but no titles are required. If you are competing at a higher level, you are more than welcome to work on polishing your fine skills like leash handling, change of behavior recognition, and search strategies. * **Dogs must know the odors of Anise, Birch, and Clove*** Your lead instructor, Pete Stevens, is the President and Lead Trainer at The Scentsable K9.

Our workshops are ready to hit the road and we are more than willing to do so. Hosts are required to find a suitable training venue that meets the needs of the desired goals. Schools (both public and private), large buildings with offices, or a large warehouse are great venues for hosting a seminar. Hosting a workshop allows you train with the Scentsable K9 without traveling to us. Please submit a form and let us know you’d like to host a workshop.
