Humane society
dog class offered
A new sport class for dogs gets
underway at SafeHaven Humane
Society on Sept. 4.
Introduction to K9 Nose Work
is designed to encourage and re-
ward dogs for using their natural
scenting ability.
This activity is an excellent
confidence builder for shy or fear-
ful dogs, and a rewarding experi-
ence for reactive dogs. This class
is held indoors and each dog works
individually. No obedience or other
skills are required.
According to Sharon Gakstat-
ter, head of behavior and training
at SafeHaven, "If you have a dog
that spends the entire length of
your daily walks with his nose to
the ground, he can find a crumb
of food in your pocket, or you
just don't take your dog in public
for fear of embarrassment at his
lack of obedience skills, this is the
class for you. This correction-free
course will allow you and your dog
to learn skills without reprimand."
Dogs of any breed, size, age,
or experience are welcome.
The class is led by trainer Jean
Richardson, who has competed in
Obedience, Rally, Agility, Herding,
Tracking and Conformation before
training to become a Certified Nose
Work Instructor.
Cost for the six-week session
is $95.
To register for the course, visit
www.safehavenhumane.org and se-
lect the Pet Training tab or contact
sharon@ safehavenhumane.com.
All class fees support Safe-
Haven Humane Society, a private
non-profit organization that has
been serving Linn County and sur-
rounding communities for more
than 35 years.
