We ask for applicants to have a professional background working with dogs and encourage our to be instructors to trail and/or shadow with a Mantrailing Global Accredited Instructor where possible to gain experience prior to attending.

Dogs are worked one at a time and it is important that they are able to be left alone in your vehicle while you are teaching on the instructor course. If you are unable to bring your dog to the course with you, please get in touch with us so that we can find a solution for you.

We would recommend being able to drive as your dog is required to settle in your vehicle in between practical lessons. It would also allow you to use different locations for sessions once you become an instructor.

The instructor course is all about your learning, teaching and coaching skills. Your Mantrailing skills prior to attending the Instructor course is important, however, we will be focussing on you as an Instructor rather than your dogs Mantrailing level.

Mantrailing is a sport training dogs to find people by following their unique scent trail. All dog's have a natural ability to hunt and therefore Mantrailing provides them with an outlet to do this in a safe, controlled and constructive way. We teach them how to harness their amazing sense of smell and turn it into a super fun activity to do together as a sport. Mantrailing Global offers Mantrailing as a fun sport for pet dogs and their owner. We do not teach dog and handler teams to become operational Search & Rescue dogs.
