Are you a dog trainer?  

✔ Do you teach Detection as a sport, or do you want to start teaching it?
✔ Do you want to improve your business by adding a source of income with this new offer for your clients?
✔ Do you want to explore up-to-date Detection training methods and how to adapt them for different dogs, motivated by food and/or toy?
✔ Would you benefit from learning skills you can also apply in other training, like:  play, motivation and working with progression plans?
✔ And, once you start teaching your clients, would you benefit from having a coach to refer back to?  

On Target K9 now offers a unique opportunity to follow a 9-month programme, from wherever you are in the world, to be coached by an international trainer specialising in the development of working Detection dogs, who also has 7 years experience in teaching pet dog classes and workshops.  

Develop your skills to offer Detection training to your clients and maintain their motivation in training. The coaching will be personalised for you and can also include conversations on developing your business.

What you'll learn is meant for teaching pet dog owners, in a recreational and sports (rather than operational) context. However, if in parallel with your teaching you personally wish to develop as a working dog handler, we can also make this programme your first stepping stone towards that.

No previous experience required, but availability is limited.
