OTCPBC Sniff ‘n Go Events
From time to time OTCPBC will offer informal Nose Work/Scent Work events to allow you to test your team’s skills in a relaxed setting. The format of these events will vary, sometimes following AKC rules, sometimes NACSW rules, sometimes PSD rules. Or rules made up for a fun event.
