Pacesetter K9

Veteran owned & operated company that specializes in training top quality K9s for Police Departments

Pacesetter K9 LLC is situated on 15 acres in the Texas Hill Country conveniently located off Highway 29 and County Road 200 in Liberty Hill, Texas. Pacesetter K9 purchases the finest canines from all over the world and trains them on narcotics, dual purpose, and/or private protection, depending upon our customer's needs. We are licensed with Texas Department of Public Safety and the Drug Enforceme

nt Administration therefore our K9's are trained on narcotics to include he**in, co***ne, methamphetamine, ma*****na and M**A. Once the customer has selected one of our canines for purchase, the customer comes to our facility in Liberty Hill, TX for a 2-4 week intensive training course to work closely with, and bond with, their canine. We offer comfortable dorms with the amenities of home during the course to ensure our clients have a positive experience. For the agencies that already have canines, we offer a myriad of customized training courses to select from. The courses can range from a few hours at your place of business to teach your officers on canine handling and safety, 3 day annual recertification course, all the way up to an 10 week trainer course at our facility. At Pacesetter K9 LLC our vision is be the premier working dog corporation by providing the highest quality working dog and be at the forefront of customer service. Through years of working in the canine community we have learned it’s all about the quality of dogs and the training of the handlers. Our business strengths are our knowledge of the working dog industry from military and law enforcement operations, dedication, and business management. Our active duty military experience has provided us with well rounded canine military knowledge working from Operation Iraqi Freedom and conducting explosive security sweeps for the Vice President and the Secretary of State. Since leaving active duty military service, we have trained explosives dogs for the Texas state capital and narcotics dogs that have seized millions of dollars and thousands of pounds of illegal drugs to help keep our streets and officers safe. The quality of time we will put into the training of each individual dog and the dog/handler team will stand out from our competitors.
