Tracking dogs by Roland Berger Pdf

Tracking - or Mantrailing in a slightly different form - is a useful activity for your dog. Actually, you do not have to teach him much here, because your dog can sniff quite certainly ... and he also does day after day with every walk. So why do you need to train your dog in tracking? Well... tracking work is a bit more profound. You yourself or another person lay a track for your dog to follow. But of course not somehow, because there are rules for this. You can even take certain exams to be able to lead your dog as a recognized tracking or rescue dog. For mantrailing, similar rules apply, but here no artificially laid track is followed by your four-legged friend, but the dog is trained so that he can follow the scent of a very specific person and thus, for example, find a missing person. The contents of the book are: - The tracking work - The tracking training - Difficulties in nature - Mantrailing and ID tracking - The trail - The examination to the recognized tracking dog - Learning tips - Conclusion Can your dog do it? Most definitely... there are very few exceptions where this sport should be avoided. These will be explained to you in this guide. In addition, you will learn how to train your tracking dog to be a tracking dog and what you need to do it. You will get all the background information you need to take your fdog on the trail. Enjoy reading, learning and training.

Tracking for Search and Rescue Dogs by Boguslaw P. Gorny Pdf

Tracking for search and rescue not only requires that the dog be trained to follow the human scent exclusively, but that he be able to begin tracking in a variety of circumstances, from a variety of scent sources, and in almost any type of terrain and conditions. Most importantly, however, training a search and rescue dog means sacrificing precision of tracking form for speed and accuracy on the track, in situations where every minute may count in finding search victims and saving their lives. Tracking for Search and Rescue Dogs gives practical advice on every facet of training dogs for this vital work, from choosing dogs to training tracklayers, from basic training to training with complex search scripts. This book is geared to preparing dog and handler for real search situations.
