Dog Training, Trailing, and Breaking Scents

TRAINING SCENTS -- Training Scents help make a dummy smell more like a gamebird or a pigeon smell more like a duck or a quail. Some trainers also rub a few drops on their hands prior to handling dummies or birds to help disguise their "hand scent".

TRAILING SCENTS -- Train dogs to quickly recognize the scent of the animals they are tracking in the field. Concentrated for maximum effectiveness.

BREAKING SCENTS -- Breaking scents help stop dogs from trailing unwanted game. Keep a piece of scent-soaked cloth, sponge, or a scent pad attached to the dog's collar (every day for as long as necessary) until desired results are achieved. Another approach is to use the breaking scent BEFORE the dog develops an interest in unwanted game, especially in areas where game (such as deer) is common.
