IABTC Super Sniffers Specials 2026
​
Canine Cognition with Georgie Armstrong
We have two visits from Georgie this year
​
2026, 16 - 17 May £200 (2 Days)
Cognition and Scent Progression Weekend
For those who have already started this process with us last year.
2026, 5 - 8 October £400 (4 Days)
Cognition and Scent 4-day Seminar for those already doing scent work.
Over the 4 days, we will look at your relationship with your dog as a search team, the reward, your dog's motivation, and build your dog's confidence in their ability to solve problems independently. Work on your dog's search duration using reinforcement. We will do this in a relaxed way with plenty of time for the dogs. Looking into your dog's body language when it's in odour, learning to read your dog better, whilst your dog is having fun!
The days run from 10 am until 4 pm, and dogs work individually, so the course is suitable for nervous or reactive dogs.
No spectators (bar partners, who are not charged for), just handlers to ensure you get the maximum out of your time with Georgie.
​
Your speaker, Georgie, has a rich background in many different scent-based disciplines, having started her training in operational work over 10 years ago. Since then, she has not only trained her dogs for deployment in SAR and Victim Recovery on land and boat, and for Pyrotechnics detection, she has also trained dogs for others in a range of disciplines, including tracking and bed bug detection.
The tests are based on research at Duke University by Cameron Ford of Ford K9 and Brian Hare. (The Genius of Dogs)
​
Limited Handler places £400 for the 4 days (Max 12).
A £100 deposit secures your place. Please make full payment by the end of the previous month.

Both seminars are currently fully booked, but places may become available, so make sure you get on the waiting list with Di.
