Success as a canine handler/trainer starts with and is hugely dependent upon you building a solid foundation by educating yourself with the basics of K9 care, behavior and training and then build upon that foundation with more advanced training courses with the goal of becoming a Master Trainer, all of which is a well thought out plan for success as a master handler/trainer. The 24-week Master Trainer Course is designed to review some important blocks of learning that are critical to progressing toward reaching a level of Master Trainer to include important components integrated at the end of the course, all geared to provide the student with valuable information about opening and managing a dog training facility.

This could take up to 6 weeks. When will my enrollment with USK9 Unlimited be sent to VA to be processed? When the school official receives the USK9 Enrollment Verification Form, your enrollment will be certified. Does USK9 Unlimited offer online courses? No. Although we offer daily classroom instruction, your program is hands on training with live police dogs. Do I need to bring a dog for any of these programs? No. You are more than welcome to bring your own dog, but it is not required. USK9 Unlimited will also offer students in this program a 20% discount on purchasing a K9 (Your VA benefits will not cover or supplement this). |
