HRD K9 – Burials


Formerly known as Level 2, this workshop will provide teams a concentrated focus on training for the detection of buried human remains. Teams will be able to work through three unique stations over the course of the three day workshop:

Burials that haven’t been contaminated by surface decomposition

A cemetery including exposure to Ground Penetrating Radar

Real world scenario based work.

Stations will also be set up throughout the course to provide continuous opportunities for exposure to large scale surface remains and solidifying the final response. This course is for intermediate and advanced teams.

Space is limited to 36 working spots. Unlimited auditor spots are available.

Instructors: Lisa Higgins, Brad Dennis, Paul S. Martin, Deana Hudgins and others

Cost: Working Spot (1 dog only) $375, Auditor Spot $200
