Find It Step Three

Step Three in our Find It Series. At this stage we can make the game a touch more difficult, but not so difficult that your dog gives up or starts to look to you for help. We want them to work independently, so keep the finds easy enough to encourage them to work on their own. We want to build confidence, not discourage them, but we also want to challenge them a little bit at the same time. Make sure not to put things up high. We can save that for once they are more experienced. It’s ok if they sort of watch you make the hide. Scent is distributed differently at different locations and different levels, and also depends on air current, temperature etc. We won’t dive in to that, but keep it in mind when making these new hides.
