Epic's nosework videos

I finally uploaded some videos to youtube for the old blog here.  The first two are of Epic's very early days.  There is a piece of food in the box had he's learning to search. 





This is several weeks later.  This one there is odor in the box, along with food-so that he starts to associate the two. 
This one is just a birch hide with no treat. It's from the same day as the above video.  He's coming along well!  At this point I don't require that he "stick" the hide or wait for any kind of alert behavior.  As soon as his nose hits the hide I'm giving a treat, or several, right at source.
