Muddy Conservation Detection Dogs, Tidy Data

We're not just any detection dog team.

We're experts in herpetology and wetland ecology that can design your study, obtain permits, collect your samples, and follow through with data wrangling, ecological modeling, publication-ready plots, and state reporting.

 

We can help you determine not just where the target is likely to be, but where detection probability is highest so you can choose to maximize or standardize your surveys. 

Lead by a PhD wildlife ecologist and a semi-famous Labrador retriever, we decrease your standard error so you can be draw better conclusions. 

 

We spend a lot of time thinking about scent so you can spend more time thinking about results.

We are a limited liability company with headquarters in Potsdam, New York, and in Sterling, Massachusetts. Our field team brings our Canine Camp to locations ranging from Newfoundland to Oaxaca. 

 

As we grow, we plan to become a non-profit organization. We're not here for the money, we're here for the non-human stakeholders who cannot speak for themselves.
