Why Scent Detection Dogs?

  • 36x faster than a human (Our dogs can cover in 5 minutes the same area that 3 people would take an hour to search visually.)

  • Highly skilled at locating cryptic and low-density species, even in challenging environments such as under snow, water, or underground. (targets that are often not visible to the Human eye.)
