Mother Nature equipped our canine companions with an ability to smell that is at least 300 times?some say 1,000 times?more powerful than our own. It is the most important way that your dog gathers information about the world. Tracking is something that comes naturally to each and every dog, no matter what age, what breed or what size. Teaching your dog to track is the perfect to way to spend time together, build your relationship and challenge both of you mentally and physically. You can teach very young puppies to track even before they can start formal obedience training, and Try Tracking! methods work with adult dogs too. Why you and your dog should Try Tracking! Tracking is fun both you and your dog when you use these positive methods. Any age dog can be taught to track?7 week-old puppies or senior citizens. It improves fitness for both dog and owner! You?ll gain a new-found respect for just how smart your dog is.

Want to do something with your puppy or dog that makes use of their natural talent? You'll want to do tracking and Carolyn has made it easy for you to try it out! She tells you what you'll need for equipment, how to draw a track diagram, and how to keep a diary and why. She addresses when to start with your puppy and how your pup can have a title before it's a year old. Don't have a puppy but still want to try? No problem she covers that too! Get hooked on tracking!

Carolyn was a guest member in February 2006 on CSDogBookReview (YahooGroups). After reading her book and listening to her discusions I've started tracking with my two four year old dogs. They're loving it!

Thanks Carolyn!
