Ignitable liquid detection canines (also known as arson dogs or fire dogs) play a crucial role in fire investigation and fire prevention, and we are committed to supporting them. At International Fire Dogs, our aim is to support the training of new ignitable liquid detection canines and their handlers, as well as the annual recertification process. We understand the importance of maintaining the skills and training of these valuable canine partners, and we are dedicated to ensuring that they are always at the top of their game. The IFD’s partnership with expert trainer Paul Gallagher through Maine Specialty Dogs is key to continuing this high level of training.

The IFD team is beyond excited to be part of a program that has such a rich history of fighting the crime of arson throughout our communities.
