Tracking for small dogs......

    Tracking for small dogs......

    Brownie did a test run for tracking at a local field nearby us. The organization was moving on to Omaha though so he cant track through this place in town. Sad

    So, I'm looking for some tracking clubs in my area thinking Brownie would have some fun. But, I know little to nothing about tracking. Anyone wanna kinda fill me in on the main details? Please and Thank-You!!

     There is a yahoogroup called Tiny Trackers. I just learned from a few friends who have tracking titles, and a book I got called Try Tracking.

    I actually don't remember the hows and whys of tracknig training, it was years ago and Gobie was probably about 2 or 3 yrs old at the time. I did tracking classes with him and eventually he found 2 lost dogs on 2 different occasions- an italian greyhound (and I am convinced she ran away on purpose, her humans made her a complete mental case... )  and a minpin who bolted during a thunder storm. 

     

    Gobie really is quite brilliant, wish I had done more with the stinker :)

     Thanks! I will check out the group! I found a tracking group in my area. How does this website look?
