Learn how to intentionally create a state of optimal performance so you can support your dog effectively—even under pressure.

Back together and ready for more! Gather in the auditorium for our second keynote of the day - Keeping the Core with Holly Bushard.
With so many exciting opportunities in scent sports, it’s easy to get swept up in competition and performance goals. From antlers to rats, essential oils to human scent, the drive to achieve can sometimes narrow our focus — and that’s not a bad thing. Scent sports are incredible.
But there is also powerful value in returning to the beginning — to the play, curiosity, and wonder that first drew us in. In this keynote, we’ll revisit the magic of discovering our dogs’ innate olfactory genius, celebrate the confidence and trust built along the way, and reflect on how scent work deepens the shared language between dog and handler.
Together, we’ll explore how to preserve the play of the game without sacrificing performance — ensuring we always keep first things first.
We’re closing the day on a high note! Join us as Lisa Iffland and Alena Heyer wrap up an unforgettable conference day. This is your final boost of inspiration — a moment to reflect, celebrate what you’ve learned, and carry the momentum forward into your training, trialing, and teamwork with your dog.
