Ready to sharpen your Elite-level skills? Join us for a half day of challenging searches designed to mirror the complexity and unpredictability of NACSW Elite competition. We'll tackle advanced search scenarios that test both dogs and handlers while focusing on strategy, communication, and efficient problem-solving.
Each search will be followed by individualized coaching to help you fine-tune your handling, improve your ability to read your dog's behavior, and develop the confidence needed for high-level competition. Whether you're preparing for your next Elite trial or simply looking to expand your team's skills, this workshop offers a supportive environment to push your teamwork to the next level.

Registration Link: Working Spot

Approved for 2.5 CEUs for CNWIs
Confidence is one of the most important skills a nose work dog can have—and one of the easiest to strengthen through Dog Parkour. In this workshop, you'll discover how simple parkour exercises can help dogs become more resilient, thoughtful, and confident when faced with challenging search environments.
We'll use safe, low-impact parkour obstacles and behaviors to improve body awareness, problem-solving, and independence while teaching dogs to confidently interact with a variety of surfaces, objects, and environments. You'll learn how to incorporate these exercises into your regular training to help your dog tackle unfamiliar search areas, recover from mistakes more quickly, and approach new challenges with confidence.
Whether your dog needs a confidence boost or you're looking for another tool to enhance your nose work training, this workshop will show you how Parkour and Nose Work are the perfect complement to one another. No previous Parkour experience is required.
