Passionate about making a difference, Pauline founded K9 Medical Detection NZ (K9MD) with a vision to revolutionise early disease detection using highly trained medical alert dogs. 

K9MD’s work is to harness the extraordinary power of canine scent detection to support life-saving research and improve health outcomes for New Zealanders. 

The work at K9MD is a collaboration between medical professionals, researchers, and exceptional detection dogs, aiming to develop non-invasive, accurate, and early detection methods for diseases such as cancer.
