The gaps in adequate information to care for and train detection dogs has led to the threefold mission of the Penn Vet Working Dog Center:
Research, Education & Implementation
Through research projects conducted at our Training Center, as well as in the field, we aim to acquire scientifically validated information that will drive advancements in the working dog. This includes the 9/11 Medical Su
rveillance Study and the AKC CAR Detection Dog DNA Bank. Dr. Otto and her staff travel to various teams and organizations across the country teaching Working Canine First Aid and Fitness & Conditioning. These classes are open to canine handlers, trainers and program managers responsible for the care and performance of working dogs. These classes, and others, are also offered at our Training Center in Philadelphia PA. What makes the Working Dog Center unique is that we strive to make this valuable new information we acquire on breeding, raising, training and caring for working dogs available to those who can put it in to practice. We share information through our website https://www.vet.upenn.edu/research/centers-laboratories/center/penn-vet-working-dog-center, and publications in scientific journals and popular press.
