Is it OK to set up my nose work training area in the same room that my dog stays in when we’re not home?

Cindy,
I am watching your video on nose work and am getting ready to start training my dog in it. My dog is a house pet and usually is allowed in all of the rooms in the house. When she is home alone, she is either outside in the kennel or inside a closed room in the basement (when the weather is bad). The issue is that the only room I have where I can set up a training space is that room where we keep her. Will that be a problem if she is in the training area with the drawers all set up but we aren't training?

Basically, my question is, will it be okay to set up the training area in the same room where the dog stays when we are not home?
This room is also the same room that we use to initially teach obedience behaviors (distraction free environment).

Thank you

Yeah that’s a good idea. I’ll just have to figure out some way to split the room in two. Or set up a few baby gates.

Thanks!
