2023 Truffle Hunt Dates

2023 Truffle Hunt Dates

We have dates for 2023 Truffle Hunts. Contact us for hunts in your area. The dogs are ready and keen to hunt and hoping for some dry, frosty days.

We’re looking forward to meeting our growers again and finding new truffles.

Caph, our Belgian Malinois, has proven a very good truffle hunter. Unlike the other dogs, she sits and points her nose at the spot. Last year, she found the only tree in 600 with truffle underneath. One very excited grower!

Maze, another Belgian Malinois is full of energy and loves working. He’s ready to hunt!

Sadly, we no longer have our lovely old Labrador Sirius. She was our first truffle dog and found many hundreds of kilos of truffles for growers in New Zealand and Australia. A local gin distiller has named a truffle gin, Sirius’ Find after our girl.
