We would like to take this opportunity to thank many of the police services in Canada that have entrusted supply them their members of their canine until over the years.

City of London, Halton Regional Police, Windsor Police, Saint John Police, Thunder Bay Police, Guelph Police, Quinte West Police, Chatham/Kent Police, Durham Regional Police, Peel Police, Waterloo Regional Police, Midland Police, Cobourg Police, Barrie Police, City of Toronto Police, South Simcoe Police, Halifax Regional Police, R.C.M.P., Espanola Police, York Regional Police, Calgary Police, O.P.P., Great Breton Police, etc.

Thank you also to the many U.S.A. Police Departments that also have our dogs and have given them a real value to their lifes.

I spent 25+ years raising, training, importing, certifying police dogs and their handlers. I gained much experience and many long lasting friends during this time. Although I have moved into more civilian world, I can never replace my experience with serving with the police for so many years.

Green Dogs

All of our dogs (our own and imports) are fully worked in the following areas: retrieval drive, will retrieve different articles including rubber, wood, plastic, steel etc. and will have excellent drive for the ball. Will hunt for the ball in different environments using their nose-not their eyes and will have some possession for it. Dogs are tested under gunfire doing retrieval to see if there is any reaction. They must remain somewhat neutral- showing no fear or aggression to it.

The bite work is advanced for a green dog, they will be fully committed with a full bite on stationary, chase (escape) and courage tests. All dogs are tested in several locations to measure their full intensity and nerve. We also test them and make sure they have civil aggression.

Environmental sureness is evaluated and corrected if insufficiencies are noted, all dogs are familiar with buildings, shiny floors, stairs/cat walks, fire-escapes, dark rooms, gyms, small washrooms and crowded streets with people and cars to measure their temperament, nerve and stability.

All of our dogs will not show problems entering and exiting a kennel or crate, will not be handler aggressive and will have a balanced, neutral and "free" temperament.

Any dog showing a weakness to the above, will NOT be offered for sale.

Guarantees

Our guarantee for our own dogs on congenital defects is until the dog reaches 3 years of age, along with x-rays of hips, elbows and a full vet-check are included. Imports are for 1 year from the time of purchase.

Our dogs are well taken care of throughout their life from the time they are born, with regular vet checks, de-worming, heartworm, shots and high quality food. We do not cut corners with the raising of our dogs. A healthy dog will give you more in his work and will also not show early disease to limit his working life for your department. To do things properly, costs money and our prices reflect that, but in the long run, I can assure you, they are well worth the money. Our past clients have proven that for us.

Shipping is not included in our prices from us to you.

Fully Trained Dogs - General Purpose Patrol Dogs (7 disciplines)

Agility

Tunnel, Broad Jump, Cat Walk, 7 foot solid fence, Window Frame, A-Frame, 3 Rail Fence, Chain Link Fence, Solid Fence

We use Agility fields that are available to us. We also use many natural obstacles to teach dogs to go over whatever we want them to "within reason. We also use smoke and fire in part of our training to familiarize the dog to different stresses.

Obedience

Our dogs are trained on and off-leash with the following commands, trained in both voice and hand signals, with a lot of distance control work done. They will also work under gunfire and be neutral to it.

Heeling, Sit, Down, Stand, Come, Finish, In-Motion Exercises, Distant Control, On-Leash, Off-Leash, Both Verbal and Hand Signals.

Area Search

All dogs are finished off-lead while searching for the suspect and upon finding him/her will bark and guard to indicate or do bite reward depending on the department’s request. We spend alot of time working the bark so the dog is strong and does understand what the bark and hold is. They will search independently and will stay with the decoy upon finding him/her - he will give a strong indication. They are exposed to work in bush lines, parks, wooded areas, compounds, etc.

Tracking

All dogs are finished at a mile long track (1800 paces), with the track consisting of at least 5 legs, 3 articles down, different terrains including hard surface, road crossing and cross tracks. The track can be aged up to one hour. Either reward or man can be at the end of the track.

Article (evidence) search

All dogs are trained to indicate the following objects: Glass, Leather, Steel, Wood, Plastic, Paper etc….

The indication is made by the dog downing, with the article in front of him/her.  Retrieving the article back to the handler can be done.

The articles will be aged for a minimum of 3 hours.

The search is done on-lead and off-lead but directed. The dogs will be exposed to many different types of environments.

Building Search

After the warning is announced at the door, the dogs are trained to enter and search the building independently from their handler, locate the suspect and bark and guard to indicate or do bite reward depending on the department’s request. They will work off-lead. Once the dog has cleared the building, he may be called back and continued with a directed search. We spend valuable time working the bark/hold so the dog is strong and will search independently and will stay with the decoy upon finding him/her- he will give a strong indication. Different types of building will be used in their training.

Apprehension

Our dogs will do chase and apprehend, stationary takedowns, handler protection and courage tests with all exposed, hidden sleeves & full body suits. They will apprehend under multiple gun fire. The outs will be finished at a distance.

Additional training of stand-offs, running recalls and/or tactical training will be done, depending on the needs of the individual department.

Drug Detection Dogs

All dogs are trained to indicate to the following odors:

HASH, COCAINE, HEROIN, MARIJUANA, METHAMPHETAMINE, DRUG PARAPHERNALIA + whatever the individual needs are.

Dogs will search on-lead and off-lead and will do open searches on their own as well as directed detailed searches along with their handlers. They will be finished on real drugs. The indication will be aggressive or passive depending on the individual needs. They will be familiar with obedience and agility.

Explosive Detection Dogs

(Air Force 1- Presidential Detail)

We used Arnie in our breeding program as a sire. He was imported and fully trained by us. After 911, so many bomb dogs were needed that we decided to sell him as his excellent abilities could be better used with a law enforcement agency. As you can see, he was top in his field. Arnie was an excellent producer as well and we are happy that many of our pups are his offspring.

All dogs are trained to indicate to the following odors:

SMOKELESS- 2 TYPES (SINGLE AND DOUBLE BASE), COMMERCIAL DYNAMITE- NITRO & AMMONIA BASE, P.E.T.N. BASE EXPLOSIVES, T.N.T. BASE EXPLOSIVES, CORDS AND FUSES, FIREWORKS, SLURRY, C-1, C-4, BOOSTERS, PURODEX, EMULSION, BLACK POWDERS, ETC.

Dogs will search on-lead and off-lead and will do open searches on their own as well as directed detailed searches along with their handlers. The indication will be passive. They will be familiar with obedience and agility.

Accelerant Detection Dogs

All dogs are trained to indicate to the following odors:

GASOLINE, JET-A-FUEL, KEROSENE, HEPTANE, NAPHTHA, TOLUENE, DRY GAS, STERNO, DIESEL FUEL, NO. 2 FUEL, ACETONE, TRANSMISSION FLUID, PAINT THINNER, GUM TURPENTINE, LACQUER THINNER, PAINT REMOVER, RUBBING ALCOHOL, HERITAGE LAMP OIL, LIGHTER FLUID, METHYL ALCOHOL

 Also included in our training, we burn materials such as plastics, Styrofoam, nylons, carpets, clothing, etc. so the canine is taught to discriminate between pyrolysis odors and accelerant odors. They will search off-leash on their own or on-leash while doing a directed detailed search. The indication can be aggressive or passive depending on the individual request. They will be familiar with obedience and agility with special interest in different types of footing.

Additional training of suspect search or evidence search can be provided.

Search And Rescue dogs

All dogs are trained to the same standards as the Patrol Dogs, doing only the following 5 disciplines:

AREA SEARCH, TRACKING, ARTICLE SEARCH, OBEDIENCE, AGILITY
