Our Great Honor
Small Group Coaching
These are small events, contracted to work on specifically what attendees find most important. Subjects often include troubleshooting training problems, advanced scent/odor theory, or advanced scenario work. I work to find what programming best fits for your needs. I work with professional and sport teams. Reach out to talk about scheduling your event. ​​

Short Courses
You pick the topic, we work to design the training best suited for your needs. This typically is a mix of classroom and field work, allowing students to learn and do the concepts we talk about. Common topics include refining the trained final response, basic or advanced scent/odor theory, search strategy, advanced scenarios, operational assessments, and troubleshooting. Typical time frame is two to three days and is conducted at your location.
Workout Weekends
Workout Weekends are a immersive training designed to provide a safe learning environment away from distractions, allowing students to fully focus on their learning. Topics are defined by the attendees and we dissect the behavior science principles around them and explore how to catapult your training forward. Ideal for teams or training groups to get away and focus on their own training. Typical time frame is two to three days and is conducted at the Foundation.
Four Week Detection Dog School
Our Four Week Detection Dog School is just that, four 40 hour weeks of detection dog training designed to instill best practice training for new handler teams or provide a small group with a new training paradigm. Concentration is an understanding of the mechanical skills of training, hide placement, and intentional handling. Students leave with foundational skills, an understanding of how to catch training problems, and well on the way to certification. Our School happens at the Foundation and is an immersive environment with lodging provided.
