    This is my police dog training company. Although my training’s emphasis is police, personal protection, and sport dogs, it also excels in the training of pet dogs in basic house obedience. Since I started my business, I have raised, trained, and sold over 20 dogs for police, personal protection, and sport work. I have also trained K9 search and rescue teams with obedience and tracking skills during this period. I also have trained countless pet dogs for civilians.In 2011, I lived in Europe to continue my education in working with canines in Belgium, France, Holland, and all across Western Europe. I visited 14 countries and also went to many different world championships for the dog sport. I gained knowledge and experience in NVBK, IPO, Schutzhund, Mondio Ring, Belgian Ring, French Ring, and KNVP, and expanded my knowledge and exposure in French Ring and police K9 training.You can see more about my dogs and my training at Www.KeepAwayK9.com .

    I obtained a job in global security which moved me to West Virginia to train explosive detection dogs. My job was to imprint young dogs on 28 different explosive odors.  My dogs were sent all over the world as the company provided global security to 22 countries across 6 continents, and my dogs were sent primarily to Iraq and Afghanistan.
