Distance Odor Puzzle

This is when the handler is required to stay at the start line as their dog searches. The single hide must be placed a minimum of 10' away from the start line. The point of this puzzle is to test the dog’s ability to work away from the handler and for the handler to properly read their dog. This puzzle should be present in the Advanced level for the Interior and Exterior search elements within one of the consecutive searches. Search areas may be delineated to show which search contains the distance puzzle.
