Doesn't putting on a cologne scented collar in tracking cause problems with the dogs nose? I won't even put on bug spray before trialing my dogs because the scent can mess with there ability to make birds. Just curious.
Hey, that's a good question. The cologne technique is something Bart shares from his experience as a competitor and trainer being in Europe. It does not seem likely that the residual fragrance would be strong enough to provide that level of interference, but again, this was method used to help dogs prepare for (read: cue) for the specific mindset of required for tracking, obedience, or protection by sport handlers in Europe. However, with all things in training dogs, there are always exceptions...nothing is absolute!
