mixeduppup Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Hi guys, I have a dog in a pound that has been temp tested and I think has potential to be a detection dog. I'm just wondering whether anyone has a contact regarding this, he only has a few days left and seems like a good candidate. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff'n'Toller Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 If you get no other leads, someone from Hanrob (Steve Austin) might come out and take a look at him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mixeduppup Posted August 16, 2014 Author Share Posted August 16, 2014 If you get no other leads, someone from Hanrob (Steve Austin) might come out and take a look at him? Could you send me their details? The dog has until wednesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kavik Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Steve is no longer with Hanrob the last time I checked. Here is some contact information http://www.steveaustindogtrainer.com/contact/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mixeduppup Posted August 16, 2014 Author Share Posted August 16, 2014 Thanks, have spoken with Steve and will be doing further tests on the dog for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandiandwe Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Depending where you are (am on phone so can't see) and what kind of detection I might also be able to help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mixeduppup Posted August 16, 2014 Author Share Posted August 16, 2014 Depending where you are (am on phone so can't see) and what kind of detection I might also be able to help. The dog is in the riverina NSW and I am not sure what kind of detection but he has proven to have fantastic ball drive, great confidence and boundless energy.

Brandiandwe Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 I'm in Sydney, and might be able to get in touch with the engineers who do explosive detection. I just don't know whether they are still looking. Steve would be the better contact, but if you need help, let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryami Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Look up Grant Teeboon (The Paw Man). He was a Military Dog handler for 20+ years and while not detection military dogs, he would know all the people to contact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carolineh1 Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 Jumping on the wagon late here - I'm at a shelter in Sydney and would love additional contacts for working opportunities for high-drive dogs if anyone has suggestions :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
