Updates from the Field and Patreon Q&A

In this episode of K9 Conservationists, Kayla provides an update on what K9 Conservationists has been up to and answers some Patreon questions.

Science Highlight: Detection distance and environmental factors in conservation detection dog surveys

Questions tackled in this episode include:

• How do you take into consideration your dog team and their strengths/motivators/style when deciding on projects that you want to pursue?
• How do I reinforce the alert while helping my dog keep his nose off target?
• In a scenario where you see that detection dogs could be a huge asset to a study or project- but the leads have never considered their use before-, how would you pitch it as a possibility?
