Dakuya Training Nosework 9-1-24

Dakuya’s 3rd Nosework Training Session 
  at Craftco Metalworks’ storage yard
  9-1-24

Dakuya is now giving very nice indications.  Today she got some good experience locating high hides. You can tell when she starts a new search area because I always have her indicate on a container (box) which contains all 5 scents, to help her remember to start searching immediately.  Today she got some good experience locating high hides.  She’s going to be an excellent nosework dog like her mom, Lovely.  I love the intelligent expression in many of the photos as she indicates.  She’s searching reliably enough that she can now move to the 15’ lead instead of the 6’.
