In this video, I have the pleasure of interviewing Dawn Scheu, an expert gluten-detection trainer from Willow Service Dogs. Dawn shares her invaluable insights and experiences, from training detection dogs to understanding how dogs can smell gluten. Whether you're new to gluten-free living or looking at how a gluten-detection dog can help improve your life with Celiac Disease, this interview is packed with information you won't want to miss!
Dawn Scheu is the visionary behind Willow Service Dogs, where she specializes in training service dogs for gluten and allergen detection. With her extensive expertise, Dawn also trains dogs for Autism, PTSD, and various medical detection roles. As a trailblazer in her field, Dawn taught the first gluten-detection dog, Willow, and she has successfully trained over 30 gluten-detection dogs.
She was the first to implement a controlled search method that includes both a trained indication behavior and a trained all-clear behavior, enabling dogs to perform accurate detection work even in environments filled with odors.
