Scent Detection InstructorKris is a Bronze Level Instructor with UK Sniffer Dogs offering Scent Detection Classes and Workshops to clients from across Yorkshire with the team at Barkleys Dog Training Academy.
We have just completed our Bronze ‘Sniff and scent’ course with Kris and Abbie our instructors. Kris & Abbie made us feel so welcome and at ease from day one. My GSD is very vocal towards people and other dogs which can appear very intimidating. I was not mad to feel this was an issue nor isolated from the rest of the group. The group of which I was I in were so lovely too. The class was fun and easy going with lots of encouragement and positivity. Kris encouraged home work and as a group we welcomed the social media platform that Kris set up. Throughout the course I could see the enthusiasm Neo showed and how much he progressed, this has also helped calm him down during his walks through using sniff and scent games. I’ve loved the start of our sniff and scent work and can wait to move onto the next silver course.

Highly recommend the scent course, we joined to learn the skill of sniffing but we learnt so much more, the bond we had increased and obedience away from the class also improved. We are looking forward to continuing our sniffing training with Kris and Abbie.

We’ve loved working through the bronze scentwork course. The wonderful benefit for my reactive dog, has been the positive association of searching for the target scent in the presence of other dogs, a safe space for him to relax and learn. I’m so pleased I discovered this course with Kris and Abbie, I would highly recommend.

Kris was amazing at training both the dog and the human. A great course to develop a stronger bond with your dog and good fun too.

We did the bronze scent detection course with Kris and loved it! We firstly decided to do this course for interaction with people and other dogs as Bella isn’t the most outgoing pooch since she was born in lockdown, it helped massively with her anxiety although still a little attitude! - Bella is a tiny dog (jackapoo) and originally I wouldn’t of thought such a small dog would be interested in the sniffer course but boy was I wrong! Kris and his team know exactly what to do and Bella was a little superstar doing better than I ever thought she would! It’s a lovely way to bond with your dog as well as teaching them to use their nose! Hoping to be back for the next one!

Absolutely incredible experience for my German Shepherd! Kris is fantastic with dogs, ( and people). Highly recommend this course for anyone looking to educate and bond with their pet.
