Academy

The Pro K9 law enforcement training academy is a full service, thoroughly equipped training facility that can house both the student/handler and K9. We are located 1.5 hours south of Washington D.C. in Culpeper, VA where we conduct both on and off site training. We acclimate the K9 Teams to a variety of actual street-type scenarios to include a "Mock Court" where we bring in assistant Commonwealth Attorneys to assist with our legal classes and our "Mock Court Trial."

Our seven week, 400+ hour training program covers classroom lecture on 29 different topics to include: canine selection, drives and behavior, reading the dog, principals of training, handling techniques, first aid, behavior modification and case law prior to field work.
