This is what is written on the back cover -
"Scent work is probably one of the most enjoyable ways for all dogs to spend their time, and encouraging them to engage their natural instincts allows us to see our best friends in a new light. Only through observing the capabilities of the dog at work can we begin to have any understanding of just how well adapted they are for survival and social co-operation.
Nose work is one of the few activities enjoyed by dogs that helps to occupy and stimulate them as nature intended. In a true partnership between dog and handler engaged in nose work where each trusts the other, an intense collaboration emerges providing a balanced team striving to achieve a united goal.
The Kingdom of Scent guides the reader through a step-by-step programme designed to help both parties achieve their desired outcomes with joy and harmony. The author's innovative methods can be used by everyone from the pet owner to the serious competitor or those involved in search and rescue.
Anne Lill Kvam has an unusual gift, a real passion for her work and a wonderful understanding of how dogs learn and how best to teach them. Not only has she trained dogs in search and rescue, but she has also spent two and a half years of her life training dogs and handlers to detect land mines in Angola. She uses kind, fun and efficient methods for the best results.
Anne Lill runs her own dog training school in Norway, situated on a wooded farm where she lives with her Shiba Inu."
She regularly gives lectures at Sheila Harpers Dog Training School in the UK.
