Atrapa marchewki do nosework – pomoc treningowa do szkolenia węchowego

Carrot dummy is a unique gadget for scent training that at first glance looks like a classic orange vegetable. However, inside it hides a fully-fledged tool for professional scent work. If you're looking for a creative scent target that works well in both home games and advanced nosework classes – you've just found it! 🥕

The carrot dummy uses exactly the same threaded socket as your other accessories, including scent discs, leaves, or environmental dummies. This allows you to easily rotate Nano+ cans between different training aids. Just screw in the can, add a scent sample – and you're ready!

The carrot works great as a scent target for dogs at any skill level. You can use it in environmental work, where the dog must find the scent among natural objects, as well as in creative play – hiding carrots in various places around the house is a recipe for engaging even the smartest nose.

Moreover – the carrot dummy is part of a larger series of vegetable scent targets that will be gradually expanded. You can already start building your own “scent vegetable garden” that will diversify every training session. In the coming months, more vegetables will appear, perfectly fitting the theme of scent work and environmental work.

Set (optional accessories)

The carrot dummy is sold separately, but when purchasing, you can choose from 1 to 5 Fluonose Nano+ cans that screw perfectly into the socket inside. The cans are clean and ready for any scent sample – oil, cotton pad, or natural scent material.

Key advantages of the product

• 🥕 Realistic appearance: looks like a real carrot, perfect for environmental work.
• 🔩 Compatibility with Nano+: uses the standard socket used in all your dummies.
• 🛠️ Durability: hard, rigid material resistant to intensive use.
• 🌀 Scent holes: ensure natural diffusion of aroma.
• 💧 Easy cleaning: can be washed in warm water with detergent.
• 🧡 Versatile use: scent work, nosework, environmental work, home play.

Sample training with the carrot dummy

The following scenario is based on popular exercises used by scent work trainers. I have adapted it to the specifics of the carrot dummy:

Training “Hidden Vegetable Garden” – easy/medium level

• 1️⃣ Screw the Nano+ can into the dummy and place a scent sample inside.
• 2️⃣ Show the dog the carrot to ensure it recognizes its scent.
• 3️⃣ Hide the carrot in one of several simple places: under a table, by a chair leg, behind a pot.
• 4️⃣ Give the dog the command to start scent work.
• 5️⃣ When the dog finds the target – reward it with a treat or praise.
• 6️⃣ Gradually increase the difficulty of the hiding: among several dummies, in the garden, in the training room, near other objects mimicking the environment.

This training develops the dog's confidence, its ability to locate scents, and motivation to work. And the attractive form – a vegetable garden instead of a classic can – makes the exercises more interesting for both the handler and the trainer.
