Police K9 Handler Education
Police K9 handler training is a major factor in the overall success of Police K9 teams. Unlike many vendors, our programs are delivered by expert instructors, using proven curriculum with ample hands-on training to ensure optimum performance. We ensure that police dog handlers are highly skilled and understand the fundamentals of handling police dogs as well as the proper procedures for deployment in the field.
Unmatched scenario-based Police K9 training is one of many things that sets our programs apart and allows us to create effective, confident police K9 teams. Whether handlers are new to a K9 unit or have considerable experience, real-life, scenario-based police k9 training offers advantages that simply cannot be duplicated. The experience of our instructors allows us the ability to create life-like scenarios that will challenge K9 teams.
Real-World K9 Certification
Our Police K9 certification standards far exceed those offered by most national organizations in the United States. Our unique process of certifying police dog teams by immersing them in real-world scenarios develops confidence and efficiency in K9 teams that is unparalleled. As a result, many new K9 teams involved in this type of K9 certification obtain immediate results in operational environments soon after completing our courses.
