Enhance your K9’s detection capabilities and unlock the power of its nose with scent and odour line-up training.
The use of detector dogs to find or identify scents or odours has a long history, and has risen dramatically in recent decades in all different areas of detection, including drugs, explosives, missing persons, and more. But even with this increase, there remains a lack of information about the different ways to train dogs in scent identification and detection, and even less about the many ways that training can go wrong. K9 training experts Resi Gerritsen, Ruud Haak, and Simon Prins wrote this book so all trainers have access to the knowledge they need to train capable detector dogs.
This book introduces both professional and amateur dog handlers to the basics of scent and odour line-up training and their applications in K9 scent identification and detection work. From training schedules to the fascinating history of nose work in policing, this book is designed to be a practical, accessible, and informative resource for K9 officers, professional or volunteer search-and-rescue workers, competitive dog trainers, and enthusiastic hobbyists alike.
Dr. Resi Gerritsen and Ruud Haak are world-renowned specialists in the field of dog work and the authors of more than 30 titles on dog training. They serve as training directors and international judges for the International Red Cross Federation, the United Nations, the International Rescue Dog Organization and the Federation Cynologique Internationale (FCI).
Simon Prins is known for introducing operant conditioning to the police K9 training world. For the last 25 years, he has worked in K9 special operations, skillfully trained dogs for special operations missions, and mastered the art of using robotics and sensors with dogs to perform such tasks successfully. He is currently orking with the Netherlands Police Agency.
