Track Your Dog’s Progress and Finally See the Blind Spots Holding You Back
Mantrailing is one of the most rewarding activities you can do with your dog, but it can be fast paced and taking time to notice your dog’s progress can seem hard.
But here’s the thing:
If you’re not keeping track of your training sessions, you’re missing out on vital insights that can help your dog improve faster—and help you become a better handler.
Blind Spots in Mantrailing can be sneaky!
They creep in when we:
- Miss the patterns in our dog’s behaviour
- Expect progress to be a straight line
- Don’t notice when our dog is generalizing… or struggling
- Get tunnel vision on “success” and assume a find = a perfect trail
- Overlook the small decisions and mistakes that actually shape learning
Without spotting these, your training can plateau — and you’ll keep wondering why you’re not seeing the improvements you hoped for.
That’s where your FREE Mantrailing Log Sheet comes in.
This printable PDF gives you a simple, effective way to record your mantrailing sessions so you can:
- See clear progress over time
- Spot patterns in your dog’s work
- Reflect on your own handling choices
- Understand the why behind each trail’s outcome
It’s your personal learning record — so those “a-ha” moments don’t get lost between training and the cheeky McDonald’s run afterwards.
- Print at home (as many as you like)
- Fill in after each trail
- Adapt to your style — there’s no “wrong” way
