Testimonials

Hi! My name is Sophie! The lady-who-loves-me-and-feeds-me (you humans call her Betsy) is always looking for things to do and ways to keep me busy. A year ago someone suggested this thing called K9 Nose Work®. We found a place in Bloomsburg called HeRo Canine Consulting run by a very nice lady named Silke! She convinced Betsy to just let me be a dog and use my nose the way it was intended to be used!! How much fun is this!!! I get to sniff out food and odor, and Silke is teaching Betsy how to stay out of my way – until I might need her! It’s the BEST!! You should really give it a try. Your dog will thank you and you’ll have a great time – Betsy and I sure do!!

As my introduction to Canine NoseWork, Silke has been marvelous! She is able to combine a wealth of knowledge about dogs, an understanding of canine scenting skills, and a natural ability to teach humans with an approachable, friendly manner to create classes that are both enjoyable (for dogs AND humans) and productive.

Edy and I look forward to every class–I only wish we lived closer than over an hour away!

Yup - it’s been a never-ending journey and adventure since 2010!Thanks to Jill Marie O'Brien and Amy Herot (and Ron Gaunt, RIP) for bringing the amazing activity of K9 Nose Work and sport competition (NACSW) to us dog lovers!!!Huge shout out to every handler out there trying to learn the sport of nosework. This sport is one that LOOKS easy (to the untrained eye) but is incredibly complex with a huge body of knowledge to learn.In the handler's journey, they become masters of observation and interpretation of dog body language. They start to recognize and predict how invisible air currents move and are able to subtly position their dog in the most advantageous way so that the dog is able to work odor. The handler learns to assess the dog's changes of behavior in real time and under intense time pressure as they work through and clear an area that neither they nor their dog has been in before. A good handler learns strategy and can focus both on their dog and their surroundings.In the beginning, we don't see any of this... and this sport opens like a flower to us and reveals so many ways that we will ultimately grow as we move through the levels.Shout out to you all.....I went through this journey too....
