So Groucho's nosework instructor, Ann, got a new toller puppy last year... Spring just had her first birthday, so Ann decided to have a nosework birthday party
And despite not having attended a class in a LONG time, and Daddy' being extremely lax on practice, Groucho did REALLY well, missing only two of something like 27 hides, combined between interiors, containers, vehicles, and exteriors (about half were outdoors). The only ones he missed were in a compost bin, and a shower door, both of which were quite a ways over his head.
Really need to make the time to practice more with the little guy, he really does enjoy it.
Here he is nailing one of the vehicle hides:
