EVENT INFORMATION
ABTA seminars bring together classroom theory, scent science, and recovery strategy, but that’s just the start.
The real learning happens under pressure, on tests, with real feedback from trackers who still do the work.
We don’t just teach tracking, we train thinking handlers and dogs. You’ll learn how scent moves, how dogs process it, and how to lead with purpose when the trail goes cold. This is where science meets instinct, where pressure creates problem-solvers, and where real trackers are made.

Why ABTA Seminars Are Different
Built by Trackers Who Still Track
Where Science Meets the Scent Line
Where Science Meets the Scent Line
Every seminar is designed by active recovery teams who’ve logged real miles and recovered real deer. This isn’t theory. It’s field-tested, pressure-proven education.

Learn how scent behaves in terrain, how dogs interpret it neurologically, and why the best handlers think before they react.
From drift to cognitive fatigue, we cover it all.
