Dogs can be trained for a future in the medical profession

AUCKLAND, NEW ZEALAND - APRIL 08: Brain Shields prepares his dog Mawhai for a training session on Karamatura Track in the Waitakere Ranges at Huia on April 08, 2021 in Auckland, New Zealand. Two specially trained sniffer dogs have joined Auckland Council's biosecurity team to help in the fight against kauri dieback. The fatal, incurable tree disease is caused by a soil-borne microorganism called Phytophthora agathidicida, with Auckland's Waitākere Ranges Regional Park one of the most heavily infested kauri forests in New Zealand. Four-year-old English springer spaniel Pip and five-year-old German hunting terrier Mawhai are kauri dieback detection dogs and have been in training for the past year to be able to sniff out the kauri dieback pathogen. The dogs wear special booties when working in the forests, with different shoes for different forest areas to avoid contamination. In the future, it's hoped the dogs will be able to help protect areas without kauri dieback disease by checking equipment and materials before they are introduced into areas where the pathogen has not been detected, including the Hunua Ranges and islands in the Hauraki Gulf.
