Institute for Canine Forensics

Our mission is the advancement of education, research and certification of forensic evidence detection dog teams. We promote and elevate professionalism in the use of specially trained canines for historic and prehistoric human remains detection. We have developed advanced techniques using canines as an archaeological tool to assist cultural resource management firms, Indian organizations, universiities, churches and governmental agencies. Our activities include conducting Canine searches for historic and prehistoric human remains. We do this by using Canine teams that we have trained and certified to perform this work. We do these searches on behalf of governmental agencies, cultural resource managers, developers, religious institutions and Native organizations. Another activity is using trained canines to locate cremated remains of loved ones lost in the wildfires in California since 2018. - education and training for Forensics humans remains detection dogs and handlers - project wor
