Remy (Celhaus Reminiscent Rogue) at 82 months

Just before Christmas, Remy passed his Nosework Odor Recognition Test.  Here's his owner's description:  "There were 12 (I think) similar boxes but only one had the odor of Birch.  He identified it in 30.36 seconds.  I was so proud of him.  He gave me a clear signal since I didn't know which box it was in either." 

The pictures were taken during a mock Odor Recognition Test in September.  Here is his owner's description:  "The scent was in one of the boxes unknown to both of us.  When we went in and I gave him his cue, he went to one of the boxes and smelled it.  I thought "yes, he knows he is to be checking out the boxes".  Then I started walking down the center of the aisle.  He walked along with me, occasionally sniffing a box but otherwise looking around.  Up and down we walked.  Finally he went to a box and sniffed again, looked up at me and licked his lips.  Knowing that we only had 3 minutes to find the odor, I called alert.  The instructor and people filming us said Yes!  And yep it was the same box he first checked out when we walked into the ring.  The instructor said his indications are so subtle that I really need to work on recognizing them, and after he told me where it was, he was not interested in playing the game anymore.  Heck if I wasn't playing when he told me, then he wasn't going to waste his time.  Thank goodness it was just a practice run."  Obviously, they have gotten more in sync.  Good job, you two!

Dillon (Celhaus Ranger Dillon) and his "Mom" are the first and only certified Search & Rescue team in Sheridan.  Dillon has his Cadaver, Level I and Trailing, Level II certifications.

Nandi (Celhaus Rama Ring of Fire SchH1 BH TR1 TD CGC) was doing quite well in Schutzhund training until an injury.  He's back in training and recently tried for his SchH2.  They had a little mix-up in obedience and didn't qualify but will try again soon.
