The hardest thing to do as a handler, is to allow our dog to work through problems without our help or influence. We want our dog to succeed, so it’s natural for us to try and help, however, by allowing them to figure things out by themselves, work out scent puzzles, problem solve and do what they do best, use their nose!, we can build a more resilient trailing dog. Our Job is to read our dogs body language , allow them work without hindrance, keep them safe, hold on and Trust in their nose! 🐶❤️🐾
