Skill-building with Sock Games-another tool for your nose work toolbox!
Sock Games are a perfect option for scentwork training when you are short on space or time. Join us to explore several layers of games and exercises that can be played with a collection of socks. Transform the most uninteresting spaces into a meaningful search area! Because of their portability, sock games are ideal for generalizing and taking your show on the road. This seminar will cover a dozen different ways to challenge your team and grow your skills. These games are silly and fun! You’ll love them!
Holly Bushard
Holly started her extensive understanding of scent work with dogs as a narcotics dog handler with a police department. She is now a judge, competitor and coach. Having had the opportunity to work with many breeds doing nosework has made Holly not only a super handler but helps her understand the wide variety of challenges teams face. As a judge with three venues (AKC, CPE, and NACSW) she has a clear understanding of what is expected at a competitive level. Watching and helping teams enjoy the journey of nosework is sure to put a smile on her face and getting to be part of that. Holly loves watching joyful teams exploring and playing with all the challenges this game has to offer and getting to help them do better, with more joy is the icing on the cake for her!
