Have you gone to workshops where the instructor gives you all kinds of information, and never found out whether it would suit you and your dog? That will not happen here. You will totally understand what works for you and your dog. If your dog is trained and you are looking for certification, we can provide under American Working Dog Association membership and guidelines.

One of the main reasons for a Detection workshop is to have Canadians realize the value of detection dogs, used in Law enforcement, Search and Rescue, and the private sector.  It is a growing industry in Canada.
In the United States, in the smallest State they have 1000 working dogs.
Across Canada with RCMP, Customs, City and Regional Police, OPP and QPP, Agriculture , Conservation, Fire departments and private organizations, Corrections, there are about 800 working dogs.
In every country of the world they have recognized the value of the working canine, hopefully a seminar like this will help Canadians recognize the value of the canine as well.
