Location: Glendhenmere Kennels south of Murray, KY, or Paducah Kennel Club Building and Grounds

This will be a seminar of interest to both beginners and experienced
trackers. You will be introduced to some new and more efficient ways to
reach your scent work goals. The main focus will be on quickly and
efficiently obtaining AKC Tracking titles and improving scores on the
Schutzhund Tracking fields. Instructor: Dr. Mary Belle Adelman AKC
Tracking judge and NASA Schutzhund judge.
Some of the things covered will include:
* Introduction to scent work for practical use and competition
* Setting realistic goals
* How to keep your air scenting dog on the track
* Are you training your dog to fail?
* Plus lots more!
We plan on running at least 4 individual tracks with every dog during
the two day event, so come prepared to work. Bring good working gear
including rain equipment. It could be wet—you know KY
Pre-registration gets a free tracking lead. All other $150. Early
registration is encouraged. The Seminar is limited to 20 working dogs
slots (limited audit slots). Location will depend upon number of
entries. Only one dog, per participant, to work. All dogs must be
crated, plenty of room outside with shade..
There will be
continental breakfast and lunch provided both days, plus many food
establishments are located within 15 minutes of the seminar site. If we
have over 15 entries we will probably move to he PKC which has a great
facility including: Indoor Training and eating area, plus 19 acres of
tracking just outside the door. Good crating both inside and outside
under cover.
Instructor: Dr Mary Belle Adelman (AKC judge in
conformation, herding, obedience, tracking; and former Schutzhund judge.
