In fact, nose work is a very important brain activity for dogs and contributes to a mentally well balanced canine. All breeds have enormous ability to follow scent.

It will contribute greatly to a more relaxed, happy dog while team building between handler and dog. The dogs will learn to work a small area search and indi- cate a FIND (which will be the handler’s personal hid- den articles). No aggressive or serious behavior prob- lems please and your dog being able to sit is helpful. No previous training is required. In partnership with Canine Spirit.

Following the creation of the new colony, the Imperial Gov- ernment in England informed Governor Douglas that they ex- pected British Columbia to be self-supporting. Revenue was to be raised by the sale of public lands, taxes on the export of gold and duties on beer, wine, spirits and other articles. Many of these items would arrive and depart the colony via the gov- ernment pier, completed directly below the Customs House. In 1882 the building was decorated to receive Governor Gen- eral Lord Dufferin on his visit to the City. The customs house remained at this location until it later moved to the corner of Sixth and Columbia Streets in the late 1800s. In 1910, the Westminster Trust Company purchased the land where the Customs House once stood.
