Success Stories
We were lucky to host Paul for a few days whilst in Australia to work with our Wildlife Detection teams. We enjoyed some problem-solving, tweaking of current projects, and planning for an upcoming project where Paul provided helpful insights from his wealth of experience. Thanks, Paul, for spending time with our team.
The Australasian Conservation Dog Network hosted Paul for both his General Detection and Buried Odour workshops in 2025. Paul is a great communicator, both in preparation and when delivering the workshops.
We appreciated the generosity with which Paul shared his extensive knowledge on all aspects of detection, tailoring everything to the teams he was working with.
Paul created an engaging learning environment, delivering fantastic content which was straightforward to take home and utilise in training straight away or hold onto for future projects. We received excellent feedback from the workshop participants.
I’ve had the wonderful opportunity to train with both Paul and Christina (his assistant trainer), in person and via Zoom, and both experiences were equally valuable. They truly understand working dogs, and they know how to communicate both with the dog and the handler. I appreciate Paul’s willingness to share his deep knowledge and his no-nonsense approach. And I hope to continue my K9 handler education with him.
If you’re working in detection or any field where precision and control are key, I can’t recommend Paul Bunker and Chiron K9 enough.
Working with Paul at Chiron K9 has been nothing short of amazing. I came to him with some very specific issues related to my detection dog, and his expertise was immediately evident. One major challenge we faced was my dog’s tendency to touch or retrieve the source he was trained to detect — something that’s instinctual for a retriever but not ideal for our line of work. Paul helped us correct this behavior with clarity and precision.
Beyond that, Paul introduced us to skills I didn’t even realize were vital: directionals, emergency stops, and emergency recalls. These are now essential tools in our work, and the way he taught them was so effective, so streamlined, and so easy to grasp — it honestly surprised me. His teaching style is direct, clear, and incredibly effective.
Wealth of useful information! Paul presents the science and the facts interspersed with his clear love and respect for dogs and Nature .
Paul’s passion for scentwork, together with his immense knowledge and enthusiasm are really contagious! Thanks for a wonderful seminar presentation – very inspiring!
I recently attended a seminar of Paul’s (Canine Principles Conference 2019) and found it to be both enlightening and very funny. Paul obviously loves his work and his enthusiasm for his subject comes across in his talks.
Paul is a fantastic speaker and tutor. His work is unique and amazing. I recommend him as teacher to learn more about his skills and experience. Paul keep up the great work and good luck with the toads rehabilitation.
I had the pleasure of attending Pauls Bunkers persentation at a recent conference. It was hugely Interesting and informative. It has inspired me to want to learn more about scent work for use in training pet dogs .
Thank you Paul.
Fantastic Tutor for Canine Principles and a fantastic presentation at the Canine Principles Conference. Brilliantly delivered and engaging. Brilliant support as a Tutor. Sincerely hope will be doing workshops here in the UK
His work is amazing ,just attended one of his presentations ( Canine Principals) Full of humour and I was blown away listening to how he trains dogs to pick out minute scents even under water. A fantastic presentation thank you
I attended a conference where Paul Bunker was presenting. I found it extremely informative and gained so much knowledge and inspiration. I highly recommend attending any presentation he is apart off.
