\"\"<\/a>Talk about a dog sport that is amazing!\u00a0 Dogs noses are so incredible, they have 20 times more scent receptor cells than humans
\nwhich makes them awesome nosework animals.\u00a0 You have seen the dogs working the airport, sniffing for bombs or drugs?\u00a0 How about the dogs that search for lost items or even people?\u00a0 Amazing right?\u00a0 Well, someone has invented a sport making a game out of these types of searches so that our family dogs can play!\u00a0 How cool is that?\"\"<\/p>\n

Nosework is wonderful, fun, low impact game that can be played by all types of dogs (and their people). We are using our dogs\u2019 natural instincts for sniffing and all we have to do is follow along.<\/p>\n

VIP Dog Sports uses K9 Nosework as their base for training, but there are many venues out there nowadays that are very similar.\u00a0 All the venues teach the dogs the value of several specific odors. Once the dogs see the value in seeking these odors we make it into a game.\u00a0 The dogs learn to search for these odors in containers, in rooms and on vehicles.\u00a0\u00a0 Come on out and give this a try!<\/p>\n
