Pyrotechnic detection training for dogs often begins at the puppy stage. By starting from a young age, trainers and handlers can quickly identify which dogs would excel in detection. Obedience training is required, as well as agility and protection training before a dog can be used in the field. Positive reinforcement through the use of treats and toys encourage a dog to search for these substances, learning to communicate with the handler once pyrotechnics have been identified.
They are trained to associate the smell of pyrotechnics with a reward, creating a positive link between the two.
