WORKING SERVICE TRAINING
Working Service K-9 training focuses on developing the natural bond and enhanced communication between dog and handler. Ancient in its origin, this type of training uses the desire for companionship that exists only between the dog and humans. This training uses no trickery or props; no balls, food treats, clickers or towel tugs. Instead, desire to do the given task and knowledge of communication enables the dog’s natural ability to mature freely.
Actively used in World War I and World War II by the most elite K-9 units, this training method can actually be traced back to a time when swords and spears were used in battle between the Romans and the Huns. More recently, Working Service training has proven its ability in Search and Rescue (S.A.R.) and is now used as a recovery training method for dogs and handlers around the globe. In Law Enforcement it has similarly proven its value by helping develop effective stable police dogs at the youngest ages ever, as well as explosive and narcotics-detection dogs that cannot be swayed or moved.
Today, with the events of the world ever changing, Working Service training is increasingly being used to answer the call for enhanced personal and family protection – on the streets and in our homes.
