Dog handler training

 

Our training is not based on a number of hours or a list of theoretical courses to follow. The work of a dog handler in detection does not take place behind a desk with books, but in the field in real life!

This is why our training is based with a single objective: an independent certification

A certification like that of the American Working Dog Association is assessed by a qualified trainer who is independent from the handler, but also from the person who trained the dog with the handler. This evaluation allows an independent opinion which would have real value before the courts, but also towards our training. The certification which is done annually thereafter confirms the maintenance of the team’s skills during their career.

By its scenarios in unknown places and its evaluation criteria, it is also a good way to show that the dog team is ready to start going on the field.

We train canine units which can then work in the private or public sector in the following specializations:

• Drug detection
• Bed bug detection
• Firearms detection
• Electronic Devices
• Patrol dog handler (private security)
• Intervention dog handler (private security)
• Detection of explosives / bombs (under conditions)

Our trainings include theory to fully understand how detection and the dog work, but the dog training side takes most of the time.
