POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT TRAINING
(Also known as R+, Force-Free or Reward-Based Training)
Among the many training methods available, positive reinforcement training for dogs is based on a humane ethos, one that prioritises building a strong bond with your dog. Instead of relying on coercive techniques or physical punishment, positive reinforcement teaches dogs through a reward system: When the dog performs a desired skill or exhibits a wanted behaviour, they are rewarded. Over time, the dog learns training cues and commands because of the encouragement the rewards provide.

SCENT DETECTION
Bronze Level
Scent detection (aka scentwork, nosework, scent training) is a growing dog sport that harnesses the natural power of your dog’s nose to search and find a scent.
It’s brilliant for improving focus, delivering mental stimulation, and tiring your dog out without running a marathon!
Your dog needs no previous training or obedience and it’s not physically challenging, so every dog can do it.
