Tracking
I: Dogs are trained to find a person by following the scent left behind
in that person's footprints. Tracking training develops trust, communication,
and a deeper relationship between dog and owner, as the handler must learn to
read and rely upon his dog. This course is designed to prepare dog and handler
teams to compete for the CKC tracking title (TD).
