Nala and I absolutely loved the scent taster workshop! It went at a pace suitable for both dog and owner. I was able to make notes and get the full benefit from the course! After a few hours snoozing she was able to find a scent on the side of the washing machine impressing the family! I think it will really mentally stimulate her and I feel fairly confident to do this with her thanks to both Mandy and Sam. Thankyou so much! We look forward to the next course.

Took part in a Scent Work for Beginners workshop with my overexcited springer/collie. Was a brilliant experience and both humans and puppy learned so much.

Looking forward to the next one!!! Will be purchasing the 'Nose Magic' to keep us busy until then.

Thank you!

Went to experience some scent work for my American Akita. Being a dog trainer myself I wasn’t experienced enough to tackle this by looking at YouTube videos. So I popped along for a workshop. It was great! Good fun for the dogs, getting the dogs engaging and understanding the concept, all done in a friendly manner and Mandy was brilliant. Will recommend to everybody!
