Not sure what class to take

Trying to decide between 2 classes that start this weekend. Frankie really needs a job now that he's feeling so good.
Treiball or K9 nose work.

Maybe both.
Any suggestions

I already saw your FB post, but I have the same answer!

I would do the nosework. I know several OES people on both coasts who are doing it, and they are totally hooked, and just love doing it w/ their dogs. It requires the human and dog to really learn to read each other, and it builds teamwork. They have posted pics and videos - it looks like a lot of fun, with potential to progress in it as well. :D
I wish it was offered by me...although maybe it's a good thing. How would I squeeze in another sport?? 8O :wink:
Ditto the nose work. That comes more naturally to a dog so their confidence should be built quickly.
What is nose work?
Sorry Kim I'm just re-reading this post.
Nose work is Tracking.
Laying a scent line on the ground and having the dog follow it with his nose. Search and rescue etc.

Oh that sounds so cool!
