Detection Indication
Train a reliable passive indication for your Detection dog—step by step
An easy-to-follow online guide to build a clear, focused passive indication using food.
This programme is for you if
- Your dog isn’t motivated enough by a toy/Kong for a toy-based training method. You can train this exclusively with food.
- You want an option to use a toy as a reward but prefer to shape the indication with food first. The programme offers this as an option.
- You want your dog to indicate with precision—no pawing, licking, or touching the hide, just a clear sit, stand, or down stare, at a short distance.
- A simple, structured plan—follow 10 progressive training steps that take the guesswork out of teaching a solid indication.
- Clear demo videos—see exactly how each step should look and apply it immediately to your training.
- Pro trainer insights—why you're doing each step, plus insider tips to avoid common mistakes and fast-track your progress.
How long will the training take?
Most students complete the training in 10 days to a month, but you’ll have lifetime access, so you can go at your own pace or revisit lessons anytime. Your access also includes all future updates to this programme.
