Why should I take part?
Mantrailing is a low impact sport, which unlike some sports means there is less pressure and stress on your dogs joints.
As well as providing physical exercise, Mantrailing also engages your dog’s incredible olfactory senses, giving them an intense mental workout.
All dogs, from short faced pugs, to long snouted Borzoi, have a sense of smell 40 times more sensitive than that of humans.
And they love to use it!
Most importantly, its fantastic fun for both you and your dog. You will never get tired of the buzz of a successful search!
Any dog, of any breed (or mix), age or physical ability can enjoy mantrailing. Its even suitable for nervous and reactive dogs!
Benefits of mantrailing:
- Builds your dogs confidence
- Its a fun social activity with supportive and friendly dog owning community
- Gives your dog a sense of purpose
- Builds a great relationship between you and your dog
