How to Properly Train Your GAK9

 

Whether you’re new to the world of dogs or an GAK9 dog owner, you’ve probably wondered how to properly train your pet. While it’s not always easy to figure out, the good news is that there are plenty of resources out there to help you. You just need to know where to look.

Sniffing

Detecting drugs and other substances is a major part of modern day police work, thanks in part to canines. This surge in drug discovery was made possible by the development of canines which can sense psychotropic substances, drugs, and even explosives.

Several developed jurisdictions have taken steps to admit evidence given by sniffer dogs into court.

For example, a k9 detection dog can detect illegal drugs or even bombs hidden in packages or in a person’s clothing. Some k9 detection dogs can even smell legal substances like prescription drugs.

During a traffic stop, it is permissible to perform a K9 sniff, provided the primary officer has a reasonable suspicion of criminal activity.

However, the probative value of a dog’s evidence may not be as clear cut as it might seem.

For instance, it is not uncommon for a dog to sniff out electronic devices buried in vents, radiators, and recycling bins. The same can be said of its ability to detect other similar scents.

Trailing

Whether you’re new to scent trailing or a veteran, learning how to read a dog’s body language can be crucial to your success. In this article, we’ll cover some of the most important techniques you’ll need to know to successfully use your GAK9.

The first and most important thing you’ll need to know is that your dog’s head and tail position will vary. This is because each breed of K-9 is different.

It’s also important to keep in mind that scent articles can change. Depending on the conditions, human scent can travel hundreds of yards. This can confuse your dog’s ability to follow the scent trail.

The biggest challenge is that you won’t be able to tell if your dog is following the trail or if he’s distracted. Distraction is triggered by a variety of factors, including sound, visual, and scent.

To successfully navigate through these three factors, your dog needs to be trained to discriminate between the two. This can be done through progressive training.

Scenting behaviors

Depending on your dog’s breed and temperament, the scenting behaviors of your K-9 will vary. However, the most successful dogs will exhibit specific behaviors when in a scent trail.

The best bet is to train your dog to display a variety of behavior traits. These include: a high level of curiosity, persistence and an eagerness to please.

In addition, your dog must be able to ward off distractions. This includes people, animals and even objects that may hurt or damage him or her.

In a nutshell, a scenting dog will search for the scent, find it, and then release it to you. The trick is to reward the dog for showing you the olfactory evidence. This is done by teasing out the subtle body language signals.

A good handler will recognize the various scenting behaviors of their dog. The first step is to understand the differences in scenting behaviors and learn which ones are the most useful to the task at hand.

Training

During training with GAK9 tactical tracker teams, Sarah Ross learned more about the world of dog training. She worked for the local sheriff’s department as a detention officer before pursuing a career in dog training.

She completed an internship at the Georgia K9 NTC and became certified in Basic, Advanced, and Elite Obedience, as well as Behavior Modification. She has also trained her own dogs in Behavior Modification and Puppy Preschool.

As a member of the Central GA K9 SAR Team, she has had the opportunity to work with a wide variety of dogs. She has even trained a Rottweiler puppy to housebreaking accidents free.

When Sarah joined the Central GA K9 SAR Team, the team was already expanding.

Jim and Dee Park formed the team, and when Carl B & Dona B joined the team, the team expanded to include five dogs.

The team has now grown to include a number of team members, including a human-relations dog (HRD), as well as dogs trained in tracking, search and rescue, and other specialty areas.
