Her career began in 1996, training drug and explosive detection dogs for law enforcement. By 2000, she had earned certification as both a detection dog trainer and evaluator, solidifying her expertise in working-dog development and odor-based training.<\/p>\n<p>In 2015, Hallie expanded her passion for detection work into the competitive arena, becoming actively involved in the sport of canine scent detection. Her dedication and skill led her to become a judge for the National Association of Canine Scent Work (NACSW), where she continues to contribute to the growth of the sport and its standards.<\/p>\n<p>Hallie loves teaching scent detection to dogs and their handlers, finding tremendous fulfillment in watching teams grow, learn, and\u2014most importantly\u2014have fun together. Whether clients want to compete or simply engage in a mentally stimulating activity with their dogs, Hallie believes scent work is an incredibly versatile sport that opens doors for dogs of all ages, breeds, and backgrounds. Her training philosophy centers on teamwork, confidence building, and creating positive, rewarding interactions between dogs and their handlers.<\/p>\n<p>Outside of scent detection, Hallie is actively involved in multiple canine sports with her German Shepherds, including herding, IGP, tracking, obedience, and conformation. Her wide-ranging experience enriches her approach to training and helps her support each dog-and-handler team on their unique journey.<\/p>\n<p>Through Scentsational K9 Training, Hallie is committed to helping dogs and their humans discover the joy, connection, and personal growth that scent work can inspire.<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>Day 1: Search Strategies and Improving Your Odor Information<br \/>\nWe will spend this day working on skill sets to address common problems that teams have.
