Testimonials
I am one of nine K9 Handlers with a major Metropolitan Police Department. I am in my thirteenth year with our K9 Unit and am currently running my third patrol dog. Our unit is extremely busy with approximately 1000 deployments, 800 building searches, 200 area searches, and 100 Swat deployments in 2012. We do not perform any narcotic or bomb deployments, strictly patrol functions. Apprehending over 80 felons last year.
I attended George Hickox's Clicker Training Seminar Class and was simply amazed. I won't say we were necessarily doing our training wrong, but in my opinion there is definitely a better and easier way. A way where the dog learns what is expected of him quicker and then is eager to complete the task which proves to be a more reliable dog. Now that I have incorporated these improved methods of E-collar training I have been able to reduce compulsion to even lower levels with better results. After just a few short weeks of continued training I have seen results that took me years to achieve with my two previous PSD'S. I am such a believer in his methods we have scheduled a 5 day class for our entire unit.
