Odor/Scent Theory Fundamentals & Search Strategy Pattern Development Bundle!

These are two of our most popular courses! 

We will cover the effects of microclimates, terrain, and time of day have on odor/scent movement, the signs of a stable and unstable air and the different types of odor/scent movement and how to recognize them in interior or urban environments. I will also give you ideas for setting up training scenarios to 'teach' scent theory to your K9! We will also discuss the foundational concepts of search strategy in exterior environments. You will learn about: - The different types of search strategies, when they should be used and how they can be combined most effectively - The effect of microclimates, terrain, and time of day have on search strategy - What factors you should consider when developing probability of detection and how to use the information to search to a probability of detection if it is dictated by Incident Command - A step by step process for developing a search strategy - Strategies for searching smaller areas (< 2 acres), vehicles and interiors.
