Operation Gratitude:
The Case of the Missing Golden Nose

Your dog brings the nose. You bring the detective skills. Together, you unlock the adventure!

This Thanksgiving season, join us for a K9 Scent Work Escape Room celebrating our wonderful dogs and their fabulous noses. Follow the scent, uncover clues, and crack the codes as you work together to recover the Golden Nose of Gratitude.

It’s a little mystery, a little codebreaking, and a whole lot of teamwork—with your favorite canine partner leading the way.

Your Mission

The Golden Nose is hidden, and its location is protected by keys, codes, and clues. Your dog’s job is to find trained target odor. Your job is to use the earned clues to unlock the next step.

During this approximately 15-minute guided experience, your team will move through five search areas, making discoveries and solving puzzles along the way. A mission guide will accompany you, explain each challenge, and offer hints when needed.

This is a fun, supportive adventure—not a pass/fail race. Reward your dog after every confirmed find, enjoy the discoveries, and celebrate the partnership you share.
