Introduction to Tracking Workshop

Valley Hills Obedience Club is pleased to announce we will be hosting an “Introduction to Tracking” workshop with Vita Allison.

Saturday, February 16 from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM

Canoga Park Lutheran Church, 7357 Jordan Avenue, Canoga Park, CA 91309

Vita Allison has enjoyed tracking with a number of dogs of various breeds, especially in Urban situations. She has titled over 30 dogs of different breeds in AKC and other venues, often achieving the highest awards and national rankings. She has written numerous articles to help people get started tracking, many of which were published in Dog Sport Magazine. Vita is fascinated by the science of scent and is always learning new training techniques. She would really enjoy introducing you and your dog to tracking!

This workshop is for all dog enthusiasts who are interested in learning the basics of tracking. Some of the points covered will be:

Why tracking is a great sport for almost everyone
Training a "deep nose" for a solid foundation
Article indication
Line handling
Personalizing your training plan for success
Plenty of time for questions

What to bring:

A chair for yourself and crate or pen for your dog, canopy if available, water bowl/water, plenty of small, soft treats, flat buckle collar or martingale & leash. You are welcome to bring any tracking equipment you have, but it is not at all necessary.
