As pioneers in the working dog field, Penn Vet's Working Dog Center aims to advance research and the application of the newest scientific findings, and veterinary expertise, to optimize the performance of scent detection dogs.
The special scenting ability of dogs also allows them to serve and support global health or conservation detection.
We are inspired by the Search & Rescue Dogs that responded following the attacks on 9/11and opened on September 11, 2012 and serves as a national research and development center for detection dogs.
