Teaching pet dogs to find
people using their scent
Getting Started in Mantrailing
Get started in mantrailing with just one introductory session!
​
Mantrailing is a fun dog sport, that doesn't require any training or practice between sessions. Once you've done your intro session, you can book progression sessions all over Dorset, at times that suit you! Do as many or as few as you like.
Equipment needed
Good quality harness
10m long line (don't worry, you can borrow one of these!)
Small tupperware containers
Food/toy rewards
​
You will need a car for the session, and your dog must be able to settle quietly in it without you around. If you are unsure, please contact me. There are some locations where a quiet dog is much less important if you wish to test the waters with how they cope.
We have plenty of dogs on our sessions who don't like wearing a harness. We have ways of making it less of a 'big deal', and the second they are on the trail even the worst offenders forget! Just let your instructor know before the session begins.
Help! My dog hates wearing a harness!
