When Raven is not playing dog sports with me, she is my trusty sidekick during work hours. She is a nationally certified (NESDCA) bedbug detection dog for McMahon Exterminating. Raven's keen sense of smell helps the Tristate area everyday to eradicate bedbugs! Visit our website at Mcmahoncan.com to learn more about Raven and our pest control services

Sparrow

AKC's Copperhead Road's Radiant Aurora BN RE CGC DM BCAT TKN

Labrador Retriever

“Birth date”: October 13, 2021

Sparrow is a bedbug detection dog in training for McMahon Exterminating. She is spunky and my smaller of the two puppies. Indy and Sparrow are from the same litter. Sparrow was alerting to bedbugs by 12 weeks old and absolutely loves the "find bugs" game we share. Sparrow has been competing in AKC sports and NADD since she was 6 months old. She earned her Dock Novice, Junior and Dock Master at 7 & 8 months old. She earned her BCAT within one weekend of competing and was #19th for fastest Labradors. She earned her Beginner Novice title and Rally Advanced title in 2022 at just shy of 13 months old. She now in 2023 has one leg of both her PCD and CD. She earned her Rally Excellent title in February of 2023 and is now in Master Rally. My husband and I have big plans for Sparrow beyond working her 9-5 shift with me at McMahon.

Indy

AKC's Copperhead Road's Everlasting Phoenix

Labrador Retriever

Birth date: October 13, 2021

Indy is the sister to Sparrow. She is a bedbug detection dog in training for McMahon Exterminating. She is the happy go lucky one of the two and always has her tongue hanging out. She loves to be the center of attention and she will always be down to play fetch with a ball. She has also been alerting to bedbugs since she was 12 weeks old. While Indy has not started her titling journey, we have been focusing on bedbugs since her arrival to our family at 8 weeks old. Indy has a co-owner who is my co-worker, Jake Wynn. Indy loves the entire Mcmahon team and loves working with myself and her other "dad" Jake. We have also thought about dual training her to detect termites or rodents in the future. We hope to title her a little in 2023 as she loves fastcat, dock diving and rally!

Dobbie

AKC's Buono's Doobie Doobie Doo

Chihuahua

“Birth date”: December 14, 2013

Dobbie has been in our family and has been a pet for a long time. She loves doing tricks and napping her days away. We introduced her to fastcat in 2022 and registered as an All-American Dog. She enjoyed it and we hope to get our BCAT in 2023. Though she may not be into agility, obedience or rally, we do enjoy snuggling up on the couch together. Her favorite "sport" is napping.
