@latimes So excited to be working on this project with @wildlandsnetwrk & @MojaveDesertLT. Our rescue dogs turned Conservation Dogs, Siska & Merlin are looking forward to getting paws on the ground & noses to the wind in search of genetic data on pumas & bobcats. 🦁🐕

@SisssBooomBaaah @p_aulwhite Starting surveys earlier in day, or changing to night surveys, avoiding when snakes were most active, avoiding rocky areas @ certain times of day, not walking over logs, & instead, on top, never surveying w headphones, having reliable vocal recall, etc. Small things w huge impact

@SisssBooomBaaah @p_aulwhite Great Qs! Vaccines were expensive. Some of our dogs had reactions to them & research was showing variable results.

@JPTheStrayDog We’re very much relieved and grateful for all the firefighters. Due to their quick response, they saved many acres of forest and homes, including ours 🥲🙏🏾

[Rogue Detection Teams @roguedetection]

🙏🏾to everyone who reached out during the recent PDS (Particularly Dangerous Situation) Red Flag Alert in WA. All 20 of our dogs & staff are safe. We ran through our fire evacuation protocols in case of a Level 3 evac notice. Grateful to ALL the wildland firefighters. #wildfire

What arrived in mail from Australia? Our retired #ConservationDog, Filson just got fan art! 🥲 He’s featured in Andrea Rowe’s book, “Dogs with Jobs” for his work sniffing for endangered species & illustrator, Julia Murray sent him a print as a keepsake 💕

🐝 We've been bee-sy! Our #ConservationDog Echo recently detected not 1, but 2 bumble bee nests! Every nest detected helps researchers learn more about where these pollinators live. We're so proud of our Bumblebee Dog’s noses, helping uncover some of nature's best-kept secrets.

Meet our retired Conservation Dogs: our Grey Muzzle Club, our Old Guard. Adopted from shelters for their love of fetch, they dedicated their careers in service to wildlife.

Pips (17) Winnie (16), Dio (14), Beckett (13), Filson (12). We 💗 you so much. You earned your couch time.

OMB’s proposed overhaul of federal grant rules drew nearly HALF A MILLION public comments led by the scientific community - an extraordinary response and, as far as I can tell - among the largest public comment dockets ever for an OMB rulemaking.
