Because the first class is on Halloween, we will have a “best dressed” costume contest (for the dogs, of course) along with lots of tempting goodies for both the canines and the humans so nobody feels like they’re missing out on any Halloween festivities!

THURSDAYS – Scent Games
Nov 1-Dec 6
Learn how to harness the power of your dog’s nose! Dr. Alexandra Horowitz, who studies canine cognition, explains just how strong your dog’s sense of smell is, “Dogs have from two hundred million to one billion receptor cells, depending on the breed, compared to the six million in our noses.” Because they have so many scent receptors, dogs have an immense amount of brain power dedicated to odor. Engaging that much of their brain toward a focused goal- finding a specific odor- is one of the absolute best ways to give your dog an incredible mental workout.
Scent Games is open to all dogs, including reactive, aggressive, and fearful dogs. Dogs perform their searches one-at-a-time, so your dog should be comfortable staying in the car without you for up to 15 minutes at a time. Scent Games is a particularly useful class for hyperactive dogs as teaching them to use their noses requires them to slooooooow down; otherwise they can’t search very effectively.
This class runs for 90 minutes to allow all the dogs ample opportunities to search.
Cost: $160
