7 Reasons to Start Mantrailing

Updated: 18 hours ago




Mantrailing has so many benefits for both the dog and their owner. This includes things such as: 

  1. Mental Stimulation:

    Mantrailing provides dogs with mental exercise as they engage their sense of smell, problem-solving abilities, and concentration.

  2. Physical Exercise:

    While Mantrailing is primarily a mental activity, it still requires physical effort. Dogs get to burn off energy during these sessions, which can contribute to their overall health and fitness. 

  3. Enhanced Bond: 

    Working together in Mantrailing strengthens the bond between dogs and their owners. It's a collaborative effort that builds trust, communication, and teamwork. Owners learn to read their dogs' subtle cues and share the buzz of the trail together.

  4. Confidence Building:

    Our training methods are tailored so that any pet dog can take part and enjoy it, even the nervous and reactive ones! Everything during Mantrailing is choice based, letting the dog lead the way, making Mantrailing a great confidence building tool which often transitions into their day-to-day life too.

  5. Problem-Solving Skills: 

    Mantrailing challenges dogs to use their problem-solving skills to follow a scent trail and make decisions independently. 

  6. Emotional Well-Being:

    Engaging in Mantrailing can contribute to a dog and owners emotional well-being by reducing stress and anxiety. The mental stimulation and positive interactions, as well as it encouraging them to spend time outdoors, helps create a sense of contentment and happiness. 

  7. Community:

    We pride ourselves in the community we have built for our clients. Many of the dog owners who attend our Mantrailing sessions feel that the social aspect of our training sessions is just as impactful and important as the Mantrailing itself. Creating a space where you can be around likeminded people who share the fun of the trail has always been very important to us, and for those with reactive dogs, it also means they are part of an accepting and understanding community where they can enjoy spending time with their dog without judgement.
