The K9-Nose® Scent Octopus is a pressure search device offering dynamic training with a multiple-choice concept.  The Octopus will consistently present odours for imprint training and desensitise non-target objects the dog may encounter during operational searches.

The Octopus will dramatically speed up training for a new snifferdog, constantly shaping dogs and maintaining training between operational searches.

To summarise the benefits of using a Octopus:

• Dramatically speed up your training programme.
• Consistently shapes dogs in a fast way.
• Desensitises non-target objects.
• Increases focus on the target odour.
• Increases search pressure.
• Presents a moving target.
• Increase the number of choices.
• Portable and only weighs 40kg, between 170cm and 210cm diameter
• Can be set up in small spaces and taken down when not in use.
• It’s height-adjustable to suit small, medium to large dogs.

This is a dynamic training tool and a must-have piece of kit for any scentdog-trainer. It will reduce your dog training program by months saving you time and money.

Before the use of Octopus imprint training was a bit haphazard with the use of cages, bricks, woodpiles and numerous pro-active devices such as scent boxes.
