Adopt an APU Dog
DRUM
Drum is Ol Pejeta's detection dog. As a Springer Spaniel is the perfect breed to carry this job.
He was born in June 2018. Drum was chosen for his role at Ol Pejeta at just 8 weeks old, and after completing his training with Animals Saving Animals in the UK, he moved to his new home in Kenya in March 2019.
Drum is curious and very intelligent, even escaping his own kennel to assist an older dog, when he was still in training!
Scarf
Scarf was born in October 2016 and arrived at Ol Pejeta on the 8th December 2016.
Scarf is a Bloodhound and is extremely physically fit, which is essential as a tracker dog responsible for tracking the scent of poachers, sometimes for many miles.
Scarf's favourite treats are sausages, as well as playing with her keepers.
Otis
Otis was born in November 2016, and came to Ol Pejeta on the 1st January, 2017 from the Masia Mara.
Otis is a Bloodhound and used as a tracker dog, meaning he follows the scent of poachers.
Since arriving at Ol Pejeta, Otis has a strong record of recovery and arrests made. He can run for miles and loves playing with his keepers.
Diego
Diego was Ol Pejeta's prime attack dog.
He was born in August 2013 and arrived at Ol Pejeta at just 1 month old! Sadly in 2020 Diego passed away from a terminal illness. This news hit the Ol Pejet team very hard, especially his handlers.
Diego was very popular around the world and we therefore give you the opportunity to adopt in memory of Diego. All funds from Diego's adoptions will help to keep the Ol Pejeta anti-poaching k-9 Unit operational - a true legacy for Diego.

ABOUT OL PEJETA’S APU DOG UNIT
In the last 10 years more than 7,000 African rhino have been illegally killed. Belgian Malinois, German Shepherd, Bloodhound or Springer Spaniel, Ol Pejeta’s dogs, once trained, are capable of search, track and attack of poachers and make highly effective members of the anti-poaching teams to help protect rhino and other wildlife.
Dogs are brilliant hunters and detectors. They have tremendous stamina, a great sense of smell, and are extremely fast. They can alert rangers to the presence of a poacher up to a kilometre away and find hidden arms and ammunition.
With dogs, anti-poaching teams are now much better equipped to track and detect at night and can cover greater ground. There is no technology that works better than our canine friends.
