Webinar: The Single Most Important Skill of the Mantrailing Dog

What is the decisive factor that determines whether a mantrailing dog can reliably follow a person—even under difficult conditions?
Alongside motivation and scenting ability, one skill above all plays a central role: problem-solving ability.

Problem-solving ability describes the dog’s capacity to deal with challenges independently and to make decisions.
It is precisely this skill that determines whether a mantrailer finds the correct path at intersections, in contaminated areas, or on complex trails—or abandons the task.

But how can targeted training sustainably improve a dog’s problem-solving ability?
Which training approaches encourage independent work without overwhelming or unsettling the dog?

In this webinar, Christoph provides practical insight into his training methods. He explains how he systematically builds, develops, and stabilizes problem-solving ability in mantrailing dogs. Using concrete examples, he shows how training can be designed to make dogs more independent and solution-oriented.

The webinar is aimed at mantrailers who want to better understand their dog’s work and develop it in a targeted way—regardless of their current level of training.
