​
Reminder of the general rules:
-
All hides will be placed within Fredericton City limits.
-
The target odours are 1 - Wintergreen and 1 - Pine (2 hides total per location).
-
Each week the mystery location will be sent via email where you will receive a page link that is password protected. On the webpage, you will find a series of 3 buttons. When clicked, a clue will reveal information about the hide location. The final button has GPS coordinates and a picture of the exact location of the hide. DO NOT click the "Reveal the Answer" button unless you want the answer.
-
On that note, if your dog is showing a lot of frustration, please click the answer button, take your dog to the location, and reward your dog for finding the hide. We do not want to leave our dogs frustrated or demotivated.
-
You may want to reveal the answer up front to prevent missing rewarding your dog for finding the hide - and that is okay!
-
Most importantly, have fun!!
​
We encourage all participants to take pictures of your dogs in action so we can share your success to the Alert K9 Facebook at the end of each week. Please send photos to the email below.
