Sniff, sniff, sniff went the brown puppy.
Back and forth, back and forth.
Watson is training to be a conservation dog, and there is a special species in danger. Some itty-bitty fish – īnanga, or whitebait as you may know them – need saving. In this story about a real-life dog, you’ll learn about how detector dogs like Watson are trained for a role in conservation.
Beautifully illustrated by one of NZ’s top children’s illustrators, Jenny Cooper.
A great introduction to the positive impact that animals can have on conservation at a local level.
