About Michael McManus: 

Michael McManus has been working with dogs for 16 years, focusing on K9 Nose Work®, Treibball and Herding. His Siberian Husky, Lumi, did very well in Nose Work coming in 1st place in their NW1, 1st place in two of their NW3s, and 2nd place in the 3rd NW3, and earning numerous placements in elements. They achieved their NW3 Elite title and then focused on competitive obedience. Michael was among the first to title dogs not owned by himself in Nose Work.

He has titled a Basenji, a Flat Coated Retriever, a Border Collie, a Doberman, a Spanish Water Dog, a Bloodhound, a Golden Retriever, a German Shorthaired Pointer, a Labrador Retriever, a Basset Hound, an English Bulldog, and a Belgian Malinois in sanctioned trials. Currently, Michael is trialing his Lab in Elite (1st place overall and Pronounced overall in their first Elite trial) and his English Bulldog in NW2. He is also an NACSW Certifying Official, Camp Instructor (including the 2021 and 2022 virtual nose work camps) and teaches seminars around the country.
