Scientific Working Group on Dog and Orthogonal Detector Guidelines (SWGDOG)

SWGDOG Resources

The Scientific Working Group on Dog and Orthogonal detector Guidelines is a forum aimed at addressing the broadly expressed need to improve the performance, reliability, and courtroom defensibility of detector dog teams. It is also charged with recommending best approaches to the use of detector dogs in conjunction with electronic detection devices, or so-called orthogonal detectors.

Modeled after the successful precedent of a variety of other scientific working groups, SWGDOG aims develop internationally recognized consensus-based best practice guidelines developed by a membership of respected scientists, practitioners and policy makers representing diverse backgrounds within the detection community.

SWGDOG is funded by the National Institute of Justice, Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the Transportation Security Administration.
