4G & TB

We NOSE Fun!

4G & TB has expanded steadily since its founding in 2016 and now attracts competitors from all over the region.  We are a not for profit club composed of members interested in growing dog sports through practice, trials and education.  Our mission is to spread the availability of dog sports to the Chicago Suburbs and surrounding states.  4G & TB members have founded clubs to host UKC Trials as Dog Scent Sports Club of Joliet, AKC trials as Scent Work Club of Joliet, we also host events for C-WAGS, USCSS and NACSW as well as fun matches for practice and trial preparation. 

We are proud to have been the first US hosts of Detection Dog Trials in 2023.  Please watch for upcoming events with Detection Dog Trials.  You can find more information about this venue under our Forms & Registration Links page. 

We understand the commitment you have made to your dog.  We would like to offer the opportunity for you and your dog to play with us.  We welcome all competitors - novice through seasoned veterans - willing to learn, share their knowledge, practice, play and compete. 

Join us in building a strong relationship with your dog through scent work, games and hands on seminars.
