This list is for the SERIOUS discussion of Police Working dogs, their training and their utilization in the field of Law Enforcement. This list is NOT for those who are simply dog lovers or pet owners. Additionally, this list is not for those that engage in other aspects of dog training, such as AKC trials, obedience, ect. If you are NOT a Law Enforcement Officer or if you are NOT involved in an aspect of POLICE K-9 training, then please do not join this list.

Because Police K-9 training can be a sensitive subject, we like to know who you are and why you want to be on the list.

Thanks!

Jim Hornbeck
