Nosework Dog : Understanding Olfaction and Odors Manual

Bok av Fred Helfers
Welcome to the World of Detection Dogs. This manual is designed to assist a handler of a detection dog to enhance their team's proficiency in the detection of a trained odor. It is the author's belief that the foundation of a successful handler lays in accumulating both practical experience and a firm knowledge of the Canine Olfactory System. The manual does not attempt to cover all areas of canine olfaction and odor movement. It is just the foundation, a primer where the handler should continue to learn about odor and olfaction to better understand how their canine partner detects the world of odors. I must caution those that are new to the field of canine detection. The information contained herein is a foundation. Do not take this information and over analyze each scenting problem, let your dog teach you. "e;Train don't Test"e;. Watch your dog as they unravel each new scenting problem. TRUST your dog!
