Very Important
All of ours Certifications must be pass in "double Blind"
​
What is a real "double blind"?
It's like setting off on the trail with your dog without knowing the runner's route. No one in the group with the K9 team (handler + dog) knows the route either. There's no possibility of intentionally or unintentionally giving information to the K9 team, and no possibility of cheating.​​​​​​
​
What is the goal of "double blind" training and testing?
It is very important to train in a "double-blind" setting at certain times to truly understand the skill level of a K9 team (handler + dog).
It is crucial to conduct "double-blind" tests to eliminate any possibility of cheating and to closely simulate operational working conditions.
