This workshop is designed to improve the accuracy and efficiency of Human Remains Detection dogs and handlers working in a still water environment. During the three day training we will focus on improving both the K9 and handler’s search strategy and skills in a still water environment. We will cover special considerations for water searches and minimum handler and K9 safety recommendations. There will be multiple opportunities each day to work large training sources from boats and along the shoreline.

Teams will benefit most from this course if they have had at least some experience working from a boat prior to attending.

Space is limited to 10 working spots. Unlimited auditor spots available.
