I honestly had never heard of nosework videos before..lol..But I thought this one was really interesting, and the star of the show is just adorable!

It' getting colder here in So Cal.

Eddie---you are awsome as usual!! Keep up the great work.

Nice to hear from you!

Good work, Eddie. Nice to see them all again.

Great work Eddie!

I love how he uses his nose/head turns to point and tell you, "It's here Dad. Look." Adorable! What are you using for the scent in the little tin?

Thanks, everybody! Maximo, the tin contains a Q-tip with a birch essential oil odor, specifically "Sweet Birch", aka Betula Lenta.

The national nose work association chose 3 specific odors to use in competition so all dogs nationwide would be trained to identify the exact same thing. The birch is the first one they learn.

Next comes:
Anise (we use "Aniseseed" aka*Pimpinella anisum variety, NOT Star Anise,Illicium verum)
and
Clove*(we use "Clove Bud" aka Eugenia Caryophylatta or Syzgium Aromaticum)

I wouldn't advise anyone to buy the oils and dive in without some instruction. Eddie took two 6-week classes finding treats before odors were even introduced.
