Training dogs to track

Postby Rik_H on Thu Oct 16, 2008 11:44 pm

I have just had a look around the www and I can find no infomation about how one would start training a dog to track for fun.
I am thinking this must be a good thing and I think that the dogs would like it so

How do we get started?????

Rik,
Don't know if this helps but if it's just for fun this link might be worth a go. I know I want to do it with Lilly (gotta try something that might actually tire her out!! lol) & I'm guessing this one is the super easy way for beginners. http://www.dogchannel.com/dog-activitie ... e_378.aspx
