LEARN MOREConservation & Detection Dog Services
Training and handling detection dogs has become the primary focus of the Tate business since 2015. On average our dogs and handlers are in the field 50% of the year. We are currently engaged to the Department of Planning, Industry and Environment (formerly OEH NSW) on 3 different major projects detecting Koalas, Invasive plants and Feral animals.
Our dogs have recently been used in two successful, large scale pest eradication programs and have several smaller ongoing projects finding threatened and invasive species.
We have teams ready to go on the following targets: Koalas, Quolls, Foxes, Cats, Rabbits, Hares, Cane Toads, Owls, Hawkweed, Alligator Weed, Rats (invasive and native), Mice and Truffles.
Adding additional targets to experienced dogs and handlers can usually be achieved within a matter of weeks.
We can also provide the following relevant services:
Workshops for handlers and trainers of any skill level Detection classes for RTO’s Acquiring and training of dogs for specific targets Handlers Dog and handler validation testsComplete the form below to enquire about detection dog services.

Jen and Ryan have a number of well-trained animals ready for film as well as plenty of contacts for virtually any species of animal that you might require to be on your set. They are experienced presenters and do a tremendous job in explaining animal behaviour from an expert point of view to actors needing to work alongside them.
Ari’s first film, Trespass, won ‘BEST SHORT FILM’ at the 2016 Melbourne International Film Festival and went on to feature at film festivals around the world. Ari has also appeared in advertisements for the NSW Blind Dog Association, Subaru, Black Hawk Pet Care (alongside the whole Tate Family) and Bankwest.
Ryan was the animal expert and presenter on a special 2 part Catalyst series on ‘Making Dogs Happy’ for the ABC and both Ryan and Jen over the past years have shared their knowledge of animals on a variety of tv shows; Getaway, Sydney Weekender, The Morning Show and other educational programs for kids.
