Tony Gravely seminar:

Tony’s training plan is directly modified from his years of training professional detection dogs and teams. The bomb dog must have total focus and desire to find odor, solve the problem and locate source.
This workshop will not only tap into problem solving, but give your dog the tools to solve problems and bring out motivation to get to source like you have never experienced before!
