Sandy Miller
Sandy Miller was introduced to nosework during a trip to Dog Camp 2020 (Camp Gone to the Dogs). While seeking a way to keep her retired agility dogs active in a performance sport, it only took one class at camp for Sandy to recognize nosework as an inspiring and rewarding activity. She found it to be a meaningful game between canine and handler as they work together to solve scent puzzles, with the handler supporting their dog throughout the search.
Sandy has since continued her education in the Twin Cities under several instructors. She has participated in numerous private and semi-private lessons, as well as seminars led by regionally and nationally recognized nosework professionals. This has allowed her and her dogs to refine their skills and deepen their knowledge, which now benefits her students and their dogs.
Sandy has competed with her dogs in nosework across multiple venues, including AKC, UKC, NACSW, and CPE. She is actively involved in the 4H dog project at both county and state levels. She also competes in obedience, rally, agility, and freestyle across multiple venues, reflecting a broad and ongoing commitment to canine performance sports, and of course, her love of dogs.
