Scent toy research dog

Hello everyone, 

Here is my design for a simple scent box for a dog. It is meant to fill with a desired smell and teach the dog to find it. 

Ideal to provide mental activity for your dog on rainy days !

Here are a few tips to learn your dog how to search :

• Start by hiding food on “obvious places” that he can see (you need to use the “stay” order). You need to associate a word to the action, for instance : Search !
• Then you can start to hide the food someplace he does not see but still simple. 
• You increase difficulty slowly

IMPORTANT : you need to reward your dog every time he finds the treat 

• Finally you can repeat the process with a different smell than food, still reward your dog every time he finds it
• Work your way through more difficult smells and hiding places
