Sandie's Scent School

 

Be the first to review

 I have recently retired after serving 30 years as a frontline Police Officer, over 25 years as as a police dog handler.  I was a General Purpose Police Dog Handler, a Firearms Support Dog Handler and Specialist Search Dog Handler.  I have worked GSD’s, a Dutch Herder, Husky x GSD, Malinois,, a Rottweiler, a Labrador x , sprocker and Springer Spaniels.

In 2012 I started running puppy school courses.  I am a Puppy School Tutor and run Puppy School Kidderminster part of the Puppy School Uk franchise.  I have learnt so much more training puppies and older pet dogs and have helped train such a variety of breeds and would love to bring the pet dog into the wonderful world of Scent work!

In 2020 I attended a City & Guilds Assured Scent Instructor course with The UK College of Scent Dogs (now The College of Scent Dogs), I then undertook the City & Guilds Assured Scent Handler course and 6 day Assessment to become a City & Guilds Assured Scent Instructor and in 2020 Sandie’s Scent School was born. 

I aim to bring the wonderful world of scent work to you and your canine companion together with my wealth of operational experience to make your journey more enjoyable.
