TRACKING TRIAL

[web link .....]

• A Tracking trial is an event to encourage dogs to make use of their strongest facility, the ability to follow a scent trail.
• The competition emulates the finding of a lost person or article in a situation where the performance of the dog can be fairly assessed.
• Because of this, the tracks laid are straight-forward, not the wanderings that may characterize a lost person, nor do they include deliberate attempts by the tracklayer to deceive the dog.
