UglyCoyoteNG Ou, Rainey! How'd your agility weekend go? I forgot to ask. Also, that sounds interesting. If its a change in behavior, do you think maybe there was scents of animals in the garage, or maybe it was somthing the dogs missed? Your so lucky to do that. I wish I could. I'm glad it went well for you today, by the way!
agility went great. As to change of behavior, the behavior for smelling animals and for smelling a source is different. When I say change of behavior, it;s a behavior that only the handler would recognize as a change in the dog that happens when the dog comes into a scent pool from a source or some component of the source. Since dogs smell all components of something rather than the whole picture, if it were C4, she could be hitting on motor oil since it is a component of that explosive. For my dog, her change of behavior is her head snapping to the side, her tail wagging quickly from side to side a light snuffling on the ground. But with her, unless we're detailing, there won;'t be much change in behavior and it isn't big like the other dogs. If there's scent, she'll just do her alert. With one of the others such as Tatum and Topaz, they always do hard sniffing at an area before they do their alert so they have a strong change of behavior. (the behavior for animal scent is usually the ears coming forward, eyes become dilated and alert, body stiffens and tail is equal to body but wagging stiffly i.e. prey drive. Their sniffing behavior will also be concentrated in one spot rather than the sweeping motion of scent moving)
