We feed our personal dogs raw. The boys ground 400lbs of chicken quarters. We have fed frozen ground blocks for years and the dog’s teeth are amazingly white. We have personally witnessed switching to a raw diet bring two dogs “back to life” one of those being my old patrol dog.

20 years with this lady today. I’ve lost track of how many dogs we’ve worked with over the years. She has trained some crazy and tough ass dogs that a lot of people would be terrified of. There isn’t a dog she doesn’t work or take care of here. We would have never had a successful business without team work. Cheers 🥂

If the dog wants/needs to cool in a pond or creek let them. Never has someone told me no I couldn’t crank on an outside faucet at their house when we deployed on a call. Cool them down!!

Update- Pickles has found a new home.

My name is Pickles. I’m a super nice boy. My dad, aka the trainer, says too nice to be a police dog. I will make a great family pet and hunting partner. I sit, go in a crate, use a dog door on the kennel, fetch like a champ, and snuggle hard - I love pets from everyone. Contact us with inquiries.

Thank you to Dr. Kate Atlantic Animal Health Center for saving our Merica. She came down with Pyometra. She has made a full fast recovery. Also with that we will go into the importance of teaching your pets to wear a muzzle. So much easier than cones.

K9 Rage - you will be missed! This will always be one of the most memorable dogs we have ever put out. She started the I80 K9 business. As we reflected yesterday and this morning on the memories of this pup. We purchased this pup at 8 weeks old and put more hours of work into her than most can ever image. 1000’s of hours of work. A dog that with proper training, socialization, and guidance was a social butterfly and LOVED children but at a single command would hammer whoever she was told to apprehend. This was the dog that every handler wanted.

She had a few different handlers over her career as things sometimes go. Retiring from Guthrie County with her handler Jim. There was a special bond with Jim and Rage. I was watching old videos of training her and every video our son who was a toddler then was right there walking through the middle of her working (if he wasn’t working her himself). It was no big deal to Rage she just did her job.

We have so many memories with this girl. Anne and I could probably talk all day about her. So here are few memories of this wonderful dog.
