More building access at training tonight. Here is young K9 Nina, a blue tick coon hound working an empty dormitory. Nina is in training for trailing and is excelling very quickly.

The all important reward for Nina occurs when she finds her missing subject. For the dogs, finding the person is essentially a big game of hide and seek. And when they find the person praise and reward are the order of the day. The quickest way to Nina's heart is through her stomach. Here she enjoys her reward after a long building search.
