1. Gather Supplies

-Before you embark on scent work training, gather the following supplies:

Treats: Use high-value treats your dog adores.
Scent source: Depending on your training goal (e.g., essential oils for recreational scent work, specific target scents for professional use).
Containers: Small, airtight containers to hold the scent source.
Containers for hiding: Objects to place the scent in for hide-and-seek games.
Leash and collar/harness: Necessary for controlled training sessions.
