Urban Trailing 

This 16 hour block of instruction exposes the canine and handler to the specialty of trailing in an urban environment. Dogs attending this instruction should already be experienced with following human scent. Canines and their handlers will be taught proper scent article collection and preservation, reading the canine’s body language, working city intersections, dealing with heavy contamination, working alleys, business and residential districts and safely dealing with vehicle and pedestrian traffic. Safety issues concerning the city environment will also be discussed. All dogs must be highly visible through some sort of light apparatus at night and must trail on harness and lead for their safety. Practical scenarios include both day and night activities.
