What is this course for?

The Adlerhorst Patrol Detection Dog (APDD) course has been designed to train canines to detect narcotics, explosives, firearms, accelerants, human remains and other substances as required to meet the mission, regional and operational deployment needs of each agency. During the course the canines will be trained to use a systematic pressure search to discriminate undesired odors and passively alert to the source of desired odors.

The focus of detection training is also with the K9 Handler to assist them in becoming valuable and successful partners to their canines. Detection Handler development will provide the skills and knowledge necessary to maintain basic detection proficiency and increase the effectiveness and efficiency of the K9 Team.

Upon completion of this course of instruction, the K9 Handler will be able to:
Demonstrate the ability to assess the search environment and conduct an efficient & effective search as a K9 Team.
Demonstrate the ability to identify activities, behaviors, and final response of the canine when trained odors have been discovered.

  • The K9 Team is competent and able to conduct their actions safely, effectively and efficiently.
  • The student Handler has the knowledge and ability to maintain basic skills and continue to improve as the K9 Team develops.
