    Wow, thats really interesting. I hadn't heard of them doing this as a sport. I think that it is something Ethan might enjoy, but I already checked and there are no classes anywhere near us.

    Oh well, it sounds like Willy is having fun at it, and I hope he continues to do well!

    Here is a link to the organization: http://www.funnosework.com/

    Casper, check with places near you that offer Agility and Flyball. Our instructor isn't listed on the website and I asked her why at our second class. She said she has taken many seminars, attended their 2 week camp, and has signed up for the instructor course. Since this is a new sport, there aren't many "trainers to train the trainers" as yet, and she's been told the waiting list is 14 months! She has her dog certified for NW1 and NW 2 and working on NW3. So she can teach us through NW1 comfortably and wouldn't consider taking us beyond that level. Still, we have plenty of things to learn!

    Nosework sounds really fun. There is a lady in my agility class who teaches nosework classes, so I have heard a bit about it from her So far Taggart and I are only focused on agility though but I must say I am intrigued.
