Steinig Tal K-9 Police Academy Standard
​
The three areas of certification are, narcotics detection, tracking/trailing, and patrol utilization. The objective of the standards are to:
​
Ensure that police K-9 teams are properly trained in order to protect lives and property of our citizens.
​
Provide a standard in which all trained K-9's must maintain during the performance of their duties.
​
Ensure that handlers have adequate knowledge of the laws regarding the use of K-9's.
​
Prevent malicious use of partially trained K-9's within Law Enforcement Agencies.
​
Provide re-certification on a timely basis in order to maintain the integrity and credibility of the K-9 teams.
​
We certify K-9's that have been purchased from other K-9 facilities and provide them with maintenance training as requested.
