Getting to Know Stacy Barnett


Today, Robin and Crystal chat with fellow co-host and detection dog extraordinaire Stacy Barnett. She is the founder of the Scentsabilities Nosework training platform, an avid and successful competitor, as well as a talented instructor.


Stacy kicks off the conversation going down memory lane. She reflects on her long, multifaceted journey from corporate America to working with horses and, finally, to dog training, and why she decided to specialize in Nosework in particular. She also touches on the many useful skills that carried over from her previous jobs into her current work.
