About Us

Jenny brings over 25 years of dedicated expertise in pet dog scentwork training to the College of Scent Dogs, where her infectious enthusiasm and deep understanding of canine olfactory capabilities have helped countless teams flourish. As an accomplished scent detection competitor and judge, she has developed a keen eye for the subtle nuances that make the difference between good and exceptional performance, allowing her to guide her students with precision and insight.

A proud member of the Pet Professional Guild and specialist scentwork trainer, Jenny's commitment to positive training methods creates an environment where both dogs and handlers can thrive with confidence.

Jenny's practical experience, combined with her warm and encouraging teaching style, ensures that every team receives the individual attention and support they need to reach their full potential in the fascinating world of scent detection.

✨ I Had an incredible day with @selbysniffers.

I first met Jenny when she was one of my tutors at @the_college_of_scent_dogs , and Jenny’s depth of knowledge and commitment to creating the best learning environment for both dogs and humans is truly a credit to the dog training world. I’m grateful for every chance to keep learning from Jenny and her fantastic team.
