Jenn Brown Bio:

After spending most of 2008 at the WHO in Geneva, she lived in Thailand for a year working with semi-feral free-ranging community dogs before taking the Karen Prior Academy (KPA) International program with Terry Ryan. She then spent 7 months interning with Terry where she was introduced to K9 Nose Work®. She recognized the value in this form of enrichment and is now a Certified Nose Work Instructor with the NACSW™.

She has undertaken pet and professional detection scent work activities, including teaching and competing, in over 20 US states and 5 different countries. She has worked with hundreds of handler teams in the US and across the globe and has thousands of hours of instruction, training, observation, handling, and volunteering experience. She holds international and domestic seminars and working clinics as well as presenting her scientific research findings at conferences and training programs worldwide.


She was the first CNWI to be invited to Australia by Marion Brand where, with permission from the Founders, she presented K9NW™ workshops and a joint detection event with professional detection expert Steve Austin. She was fortunate enough to be the first person to undertake K9NW™ with Australian dingoes at the Dingo Sanctuary in 2013. She volunteers her time to help shelters develop K9NW™ enrichment programs.

She and her dogs have participated in professional detection events and certifications, agility, lure coursing, barn hunt, obedience, Rally-O, dog (and horse) pulling, nose work trials, and JRTCA working terrier trials in the US and Australia.

She is currently working 2 USAR disaster dogs and keeps in contact regarding how her first certified cadaver dog Piper Vom Logan Haus, who passed certification on her first attempt with Matt Zarrella, is doing in her new home.
