Professional Scent Detection Services

At Macleay Valley Dog Services, we offer professional scent detection dog teams available for contract work across a range of applications, including conservation, environmental surveys, biosecurity, agriculture, and other detection projects.

Our scent detection services combine skilled canine training with scientific expertise. Our handler has extensive knowledge of canine scent detection, learning theory, and scent work methodology, with years of experience training and handling scent detection dogs. She also holds a PhD in Environmental Statistics and has extensive experience working in research, bringing an understanding of scientific methodology, study design, and the importance of reliable, high-quality data collection. Our dogs have developed strong search skills, excellent hunt drive, and the ability to work confidently and systematically across a variety of environments.

While our dogs are not currently operationally trained on a specific industry odour, they have been purposefully developed as high-quality detection dogs and are ready to be imprinted onto a target scent relevant to your project.

As we continue to establish our detection services, we are pleased to offer introductory pricing for suitable projects involving a new target odour. This enables our dogs to become proficient on the required scent while providing clients with a cost-effective service. Once trained, our goal is to develop a long-term working partnership built on professionalism, reliability, and high-quality detection outcomes.

If you have a project requiring a dedicated scent detection dog team, we would love to discuss how we may be able to assist.
