I can see Kodi is working well there though, what a fantastic dog he is, and blimey, you had to be quick to lay that scent didn't you, I'm surprised he didn't overtake you

Wonderful to see these dogs working like this, especially one has very handsome as your Kodi

I love the way he sits quite happily once you've gone off too, that's quite commendable, you must have practiced this loads of times for him to be so good at it. thanks for sharing, loved watching this
Thanks H, yes, as you say I did have to be a bit quick. I gave Kodi the stay command then agreed for my son to tell him "search" exactly 15 minutes later. He had no idea where I was going, and nor did I at that point, I just told him to 'trust your dog' and try not to fall over

he was wearing the little camera on a headband pulled over his hat.
Yes, we trained at this in a field near Chester, all last year. He got a bit bored in the end, too easy. So we moved on to longer tracks in the forest over rough ground, through water etc. We gave it up over the winter, so this was his first track this year. I thought he might have been a bit rusty, but he locked straight on to my trail, everywhere I walked he followed, except the last bit where he met the road. I knew he would have trouble there but he circled and picked me up again. He really enjoys it and is very focused. I love the way he swings his nose from side to side as he picks up the scent along the trail. Fascinating stuff
