Develop the Skills and Mindset the Finished Detection Dog Will Need

Most detection courses teach techniques.

This course teaches the principles behind them.

When your puppy becomes distracted, leaves source too quickly, looks to you for help, or responds differently than expected, techniques alone aren't enough. You need a plan for responding in the moment.

Detection From The Pup Up combines puppy development with proven detection-training principles.

While you imprint your puppy on a target odor, your puppy will learn to search confidently, work independently, ignore distractions, persist through difficulty, rely on odor – not handler cues, and remain committed to source.

INSIDE YOU WILL LEARN:

• How puppy development influences learning, confidence, and problem-solving
• How to imprint target odor off-leash
• How to use blanks, controls, and distractions to build reliable odor discrimination
• How to build problem-solving ability in your pup
• How to make better training decisions by understanding the principles behind every exercise
