Sixth NoseWork Class

Today we attended our sixth Beginners Nosework Class.  Our final class of the course.  We've already signed up for the Intermediate class.  Brutus always has so much fun working at this class.  He's always worn out on the way home, and usually for a while after we get home.  Today we worked on some variations of things we already done.  Hide being  under objects, at heights and also in a magnetic container stuck on the side of a box.  We also did a blind hide.... where the handler doesnt know which box it's in, boxes taped shut.  We had a hide, which is appropriate for thie weekend, in Easter eggs!  Brutus had fun with these, thinking these were play toys.  Smashed one into pieces!  He did well with these runs.  Overall he did great today.  He had one or two runs , in the sealed boxex, that took a bit longer, but he did work it out.  We did a few runs outside for the first time.  Back to basics with these run..... open boxes.  These 3 runs he found quickly.  He was happy to see his doggie crush, Tess, and can't wait to video tape them together next time!  Next, I'm off with Brutus to check out an agilty class, an openhouse with his previous trainer.  Sure he would love to do this too!  Video's coming soon....
