Simply stop and distract him if he starts sniffing. Do some heeling, drop on recall near a plate, have people offer food as you walk by, etc. If the dog so much as looks at the food give a brisk leash correction and move quickly in the opposite direction. If the dog cannot walk by, run by and do a recall with food on plates, then he is not going to do it on agility obstacles. Problems, Visited Judge Problems, Fast Dog Running a Trial.
