class among 4 Police K9 instructors to provide exposure to both home-made explosives (HME) as well as
large quantity high/low explosive hides. The class will be open to up to 18 handler/dog teams in order to
maximize the number of repetitions and scenarios we can provide. LE, registered security companies, or
Military only. Spectators, including supervisors and trainers are welcome to attend at the audit rate. The
class will mainly be hands on runs of the HME and large hides. The opportunities to run your operational
dogs on these hides don’t come around often! Trainers Thomas Blandino, Jerry Bradshaw, Ben Lipinski
and Taylor Jones will address any deficiencies noted in the teams, and provide problem solving and
training plans moving forward.
