Tracking Tests

The Obedience Training Club of Palm Beach County has been offering AKC Tracking tests from its earliest history.

Tracking can be done in many environments…

  • Tracking Dog (TD) and Tracking Dog Excellent (TDX) in the field
  • Variable Surface Tracking (VST) mix of field and urban elements
  • Tracking Dog Urban (TDU) urban environment with some transitions
