Sniffin' at the Movies

We're going to the movies! Join us for a sniff-thru of the Hamburg Palace Theatre. Not only will this be a unique and fun opportunity, but excellent practice for those large theatre searches encountered in trials.

Space is limited. This will be a timed event and a run order will be sent prior to the sniff-thru. We only have access to the theatre for a limited time, so everyone needs to be ready to go when it's their turn. If you are late and we aren't able to fit you in, no refunds will be given.

There is no parking lot specifically for the theatre, but there is street parking on Buffalo Street or in the municipal lot across the street. One dog may stage in the lobby while waiting their turn to sniff.

All are welcome, but be sure your dog is appropriate for this location. Handlers are responsible for any damage caused by their dog. Handlers are also responsible for clean-up of any accidents. If your dog is prone to marking, please do not register for this event.

Cancellation policy:
Full refund up to 2 weeks before
50% refund up to 1 week before
No refund for any cancellations the week before

Mock Trial with Anne

Prepare for upcoming trials! These searches will follow the philosophy and rules of NACSW™, but they are open to all. No matter what organization you trial with, this will be great practice!

Searches will be timed. Competitors can ask for as little or as much support as they would like.

If you are running multiple dogs at multiple levels, know that some searches may be nested if we need to re-use search areas.

NW2 mock trial: 5 total searches - $50
NW3 mock trial: 6 total searches - $60
ELT-S mock trial: 4 ELT-S level searches (combination of elements) - $50

The Mock Trial will start at 9am and will run throughout the day starting with NW1 and ending with ELT-S. A run order and estimated time for each level will be sent a few days before the Mock Trial.

Cancellation policy:
Full refund up to 2 weeks before the Mock Trial
50% refund up to 1 week before the Mock Trial
No refund for any cancellations the week before the Mock Trial

This location is also someone’s home, so please respect the property. Any dog found damaging property will be dismissed immediately.

Understanding How the Environment Affects Your Nose Work Search with Brian Jordan
Working Spots are FULL

Have you ever wondered how to best support your nose work team when weather or environmental conditions change? What should you do on a windy day? A cold or rainy day? How do HVAC systems, sun exposure, or even nearby vending machines affect your search?

While odor doesn’t always follow the rules, it does behave in predictable ways depending on the conditions—and recognizing those patterns can help you and your dog succeed.

Join us for a unique workshop with NACSW™ judge and professional K9 handler Brian Jordan. Brian will lead us through how different environmental factors impact scent movement, sharing insights from both sport and professional detection work.

This event will include both lecture and hands-on working sessions, so come ready to learn and work with your dog!

Whether you're new to nose work or looking to sharpen your skills, this is a workshop you won’t want to miss.

Lunch will be provided.
