epartment of Conservation (DoC) dog handlers have come from far and wide to Dogs gather to fight pests help out this week with pest controlD and to further their skills on Sanctuary Mountain Maungatautari. Dogs have outnumbered the handlers, with 27 four-legged friends making their way on to the mountain and 22 dog handlers. Some have come from as far as Stewart Island, the Chatham Islands and Hokitika. “This team is the pest detection dog unit apart of the wider Conservation Dog Programme and for years we have wanted the opportunity to do jobs together so that we can learn from each other,” says DoC pest de- tection dogs senior adviser Fin Buchanan. It was Kiwibank partnering with DoC that allowed the opportunity for the dog handlers to come together to work and train. This is the fifth year they have run the Conservation Dog Programme and each year they go to a new location. Past locations included the Bay of Islands, Great Mercury Island, Marl- borough Sounds and the Hauraki Gulf.
