I start a new class of drug dogs, May 29. Nothing like planning ahead. I wanted to start the class in February, but the admin thought May was better. Nothing like training dogs in June, July and August. I'll have 7 dogs in this class, 4 GSD's, 3 Labs. The GSD's will continue in patrol dog training later in the year. The 3 Labs were provided by the Gifted Animal Program in Dallas Texas. You can check them out at; http://www.gapdogs.org/. A very good group of folks. I drove out to Texas last week and picked them up. Three Labs, 1 black, 1 yellow and 1 chocolate. 6 of the dogs are for our department and 1 is from a neighboring small police department. Since our training is free, it's a good deal for them. The GSD's were purchased from various vendors. I'm pretty confident we have some good dogs, don't know about the handlers yet, I'm sure they'll be tired of me well before the 10 weeks is over.
