About Detection Dogs SA

After completing a Bachelor of Science in Marine and Environmental Biology, a world revolving around ocean life beckoned for Warren before a change in careers led him to fulltime work within the amazing sensory capabilities of man’s best friend. Having worked as a detection dog handler and trainer within Law Enforcement for over 15 years, has allowed Warren to learn from some of the world’s top detection dog trainers and enhance his contemporary skills with the latest methodologies. Warren has further increased his knowledge by attending numerous seminars, canine behavioural courses and being invited to be a guest presenter during national detection dog workshops.

Warren has a strong passion for all things canine and utilising their incredible untapped abilities whether protecting the environment, food and eco-tourism or in the up-coming medical detection field.

Dean’s love of working with dogs was the catalyst for his career taking a turn into the detection space in early 2011.  With over 13 years experience training and handling detection dogs in multiple capabilities and disciplines for both detection Dogs SA and the Police, Dean’s knowledge and enthusiasm for scent detection is reflected in the high quality of canines he works and trains. More recently, Dean’s passion for protecting South Australian industry from biosecurity risks has further enhanced his knowledge and skills in the detection field.
