Some of the best canine programs require 12-16 weeks of handler training before being deployed.
Our handlers undergo a full 26 week training and field mentoring program before becoming deployment ready.
All of our teams are scientifically validated (as a team) utilizing double-blind testing prior to deployment.
All odor materials utilized as odor source are pure materials.
We possess each and every license required to legally operate where we operate.
