Logan Haus Kennels would like to offer an exciting training opportunity with a handful of the most knowledgeable instructors in the country. We have the opportunity here to observe many aspects of canine training by multiple agencies all over the country and have found that four areas usually stand out as needing improvement. In turn we took that fact and decided to put together a class that would be built around improving these four areas, Scent Detection, Tactical Shooting, Decoy Development and Tactical Tracking. One day will be dedicated to making you more knowledgeable and improving your skill set in each of these areas, the final day will incorporate all of these new skills into multiple scenarios that will include various lessons learned from each class to be combined and utilized to bring it all together.
