Workshops & Events
Expand your learning and have FUN with your dog!
Do Over Dog Training is passionate about bringing in the best in the industry to share their knowledge on a wide variety of topics. No matter the subject, our workshops and special events are designed to be informative, engaging, and—most importantly—fun. These events are a great way to learn something new, challenge yourself, and enjoy building your skills and connection with your dog in an encouraging, community-focused environment.
We are proud to offer Mock Trials, Sniff-n-Gos, and Run-Thrus led by Certified Nose Work Instructors and Trial Officials, providing teams with knowledgeable guidance and a realistic, supportive trial-like experience. These events give teams a chance to practice in a trial-like setting without the pressure of competition. These events help build confidence, sharpen handling skills, and expose dogs to new environments, making them an invaluable step between class and trial day—all while keeping learning fun and low stress.
