Maggie is a search dog in-training. At this point in her training, she is learning to use her nose more. To keep her focused and thinking about a find, the Subject "Calls Out", from an unseen location. The dog is released to start looking, thinking about the find, but unable to see the Subject. These Call-Outs are short, and they must be set up carefully: using the wind to bring the "lost" Subject's scent across a path for the dog.
