School is in session Tuesday through Saturday. On weekdays you will be instructed by Tom Rose himself from eight or eight thirty in the morning until around one in the afternoon. Afterwards you will work with Rob Schenberg covering narcotics detection training. Following Narcotics on Tuesday through Friday you will enjoy supervised study with Carol Barton and Dave Knopp. Lunch is whenever you get a chance, followed by individual study and video time.
Every dog is different, every trainer is different.
We teach many different ways to teach the same exercises, it is up to the students to select the method that works for them and each dog they train. The best way to learn about our method is to purchase one of Tom Rose's two books, Training the Competitive Working Dog, or Protection Dogs . If you hire someone else to do your work for you, you still must know how. Caring for dogs, keeping records, medicating, grooming, bathing, and spotting problems is part of dealing with live animals. While you attend our school you will be responsible for the care, feeding and upkeep of the dogs you train.
