Quarantine Detector Dog Programme
Labradors and beagles were chosen by AFCD as the most suitable breeds for their friendly and outgoing nature and excellent sense of smell. Each dog has been carefully selected to join the programme. A dog is capable of screening more than 300 people per hour. The Quarantine Detector Dogs of this Programme were mainly handpicked from Australia and England. Officers of the Quarantine Detector Dog Team have also chosen suitable dogs from among the abandoned ones at AFCD’s Animal Management Centres and local animal welfare organisations for further training.
