Sprocket, Blue & Rosie

4-Legged Team

Sprocket, Blue & Rosie are a very important part of the team at Dog Almighty. They each worked as commercial truffle hunters for varying lengths of time, Rosie being the most experienced. Rosie is also a dynamite demonstration dog, she’s been doing demos in classes, schools, and in virtual training for years. Sprocket is also a good demo dog and a master hunter so he keeps our rural property rodent-free. He is also fantastic at working with fearful dogs to help them gain some confidence. Blue is already a skilled sniffer dog and is also the clown of our family! These days Rosie, Sprocket & Blue are all kept busy making new content for our new exciting project called Club Dog Almighty.
