TRACKING 101
Success Starts with the Fundamentals
If you’ve ever been frustrated on the field — your dog lifting its head, wandering off track, or losing focus — you’re not alone.
Most tracking problems come from one thing: skipping the foundation.
It’s easy to rush ahead, trying to fix issues later. But real success in tracking starts with slow, clear, consistent work — and understanding why your dog is doing what they do.
In Tracking 101, I walk you through the entire process step-by-step
. You’ll learn: How to use the right equipment and lay clean, purposeful tracks What to watch for as your dog works How to build confidence, precision, and focus from the ground up This course is about doing it right — not overcomplicating it.
These are the same fundamentals I use to build reliable, high-scoring Schutzhund tracking dogs that actually enjoy the work. If you want better results, start at the beginning — and do the basics right.
