HOST  CIK9

LOCATION
TBD

TIME  1-8 pm (lunch provided)

COST  $100 Working Spot (limited to 15)

TOPICS 

This 3-day seminar will detail the process of conditioning the dog to the muzzle and working muzzle in all aspects of patrol work including detection and tracking.  K9s will learn that the muzzle is no different than its collar, as part of the daily attire.  This course will benefit those who have not used a muzzle at all as well as those who are already conditioned to work their dogs in a muzzle.  We’ll be covering from basic to advanced techniques in the utilization of the muzzle. 

Required equipment:  Properly fitted muzzle, toy reward, food reward, long line and anything else utilized on deployments.

TRAINING  Training for high-stress deployments

HOST  CIK9

LOCATION
TBD

TIME  1-8 pm (lunch provided)

COST  $100 Working Spot (limited to 15)
$50 Audit spot (unlimited)

TOPICS 

This will be a 3-day seminar designed to help the K9 Handler think outside the box when it comes to deployment of K9 using realistic training scenarios based on actual live deployments. Handlers will be given the building blocks needed to develop the K9 Team from basic movements to high stress realistic training scenarios. Topics covered include: vehicle bailouts, door pops away from vehicle, high risk stops and vehicle assaults and will take the training beyond basic level deployments to controlled chaos so when the real high stress deployment occurs, it’s not chaos for the K9 Team.
