Scent Detection Dogs Association (SDDA) is an organization focused on promoting scent detection as a canine sport. In scent detection, dogs are trained to identify and locate a specific scent within a designated area. The SDDA organizes events, trials, and educational programs for handlers and their dogs, fostering an environment where they can develop and showcase their scent detection skills. This sport emphasizes the natural scenting abilities of dogs and applies them in a structured, competitive format, similar to real-life detection work used in law enforcement or search and rescue operations. The SDDA sets standards for competitions, ensuring that they are fair, consistent, and accessible to a wide range of participants.
