Canine Deployed Law Enforcement Training

About Canine Deployed

Our Mission:
K9 handlers are relied upon by their fellow officers, and when a K9 Unit is called, excellence is expected. K9 Units frequently encounter more use-of-force situations than any other specialized unit, requiring the necessary training to succeed in these deployments. Canine Deployed is committed to ensuring that handlers and their K9’s have the knowledge, training and confidence to succeed in any deployment.

While some companies may discuss deployment theory, our team walks the talk, showing experience that goes beyond just words. We've confronted high-risk situations, climbed into attics, chased armed fugitives, held the leash during apprehensions, seized narcotics, and testified in court. This firsthand experience isn't a supplement—it's the foundation of our commitment.

Canine Deployed is a company founded by law enforcement officers, for law enforcement officers. We don't just hand out K9s; we train handlers with a level of confidence obtained from real-life experience. When you choose us, you're getting knowledge from those who've been in the very situations they’re training you for. Most importantly, we won't give you a K9 that we wouldn't trust ourselves—keeping the same high standards of those who wear the uniform.
