Uncover the untapped potential in your dog’s superpower- their nose!

Nose Nerds is a Membership programme to help you and your dog have fun with your dog’s Superpower. All dogs LOVE using their noses. Learn what scenting signs your dog shows, teach them to look for particular things and master the art of tracking.

Nose Nerds is all about playing fun scent games and developing and marvelling at your dog’s scenting superpower. You and your dog will learn many techniques, including

  • Active searching
  • Passive searches
  • Training your dog to find particular scents in a variety of different places
  • Teaching your dog to track and find various items – and even people

and so much more…

But that’s not all. Your dog will do a lot of important clue finding, but you’ll also need to use your human brain to work out the mystery which will gradually unravel. You’ll work through a range of different scenarios, from helping a neighbour find lost items to working on complex international criminal cases.

Every level provides new scent games to play with your dog. Each game is part of a story. You’ll need to read everything carefully, because there will be clues dotted everywhere…

As you work through the story and the games, and build your knowledge, you’ll also develop and progress through the Nose Nerds experience levels. You’ll start off as a Newbie, then, through successfully completing your Missions at each level, you’ll become a Special OBI (Olefactory Bureau of Investigation) Agent. Here are the levels:

  • N – Newbie
  • O – Observer
  • S – Scout
  • E – Entry
  • N – Novice Agent
  • E – Ensign Agent
  • R – Ranger
  • D – Deputy OBI Agent
  • S – Special OBI Agent Don’t worry, there’s no pressure – you can work through the games and levels at your own pace. Enjoy working with your dog and their superpower!
