It's a terribly somber day here at Tarheel Canine as we say goodbye to DJ, one of our own, and remember him, as a dedicated and hungry K9 handler, and an upbeat, funny, and driven human being. He loved working K9 Vice, always checking in with Taylor about their work on the road in Greenwood City SC. We can't help but weep for his family, for his brothers and sisters in blue, for his friends, and his K9 partner. Please consider donating to his family at https://form-renderer-app.donorperfect.io/give/serve-and-connect/officer-don-keller

Williamson County TX Police K9 Decoy Seminar! We covered bringing out civil aggression, drive channeling to build violence of action, and channeling to prey to provide stress mitigation; grip, pushing behavior, pressure in terms of type, intensity, and duration and how decoys can build confidence through the manipulation of these variables. Targeting procedures and progressions in bicep and legs, hidden work, prosthetics, and muzzle. Catch mechanics and more! In our decoy seminars we also prioritize making the dogs at the seminar improve with the decoy work! Contact us to schedule a seminar today!

Advanced Detection Training with Jerry Bradshaw and Taylor Jones of Tarheel Canine at NIH Police in Bethesda MD. This week's training focus was on reading alert behaviors (changes in breathing, posture and canine body language in target odor), and calling those changes on difficult to source hides. Challenge your teams with difficult to source hides, extended search times, search tactics, and reading target odor responses compared to controls and distractions. If you are looking for exceptionally trained detector dogs or seminars to challenge your training contact us at Tarheel Canine!
