On your way to teach your dog to track well , food is important as we all know.
But the next step is to put you food inside something , we use a old sock , where we put in the food.
We will have them sit or lay down and then walk to the items / sock they found and give them their food , all the time laying down or sitting without moving.
Ifyou put too much food on the track , and the dog is only focussed on food rather then the search for the items , just take away most of the food - one in the start and one at the end will be enough.
