Canines in the Courtroom

Description:

HITS Training & Consulting is hosting a one day training course for all Law Enforcement Drug Dog Teams. This 8 hour course is designed specifically to enhance your skills at articulating necessary facts which are important to showing K9 reliability during court proceedings.

Expert witness and seasoned K9 handler, Andy Weiman from the Broward County Sheriff’s office has developed this course as a way to make each handler a winner in the courtroom. Bulletproofing your drug dog cases is a skill that can be learned, just like handling your police dog. Andy will walk you through each critical selling point that makes your drug dog cases much stronger in the courtroom.

Our Instructors will cover the essentials of K-9 learning theory so that each K-9 Handler has a clearer understanding of why and how their dog consistently performs every time he locates drug odors. This type of information is vital to a police K-9 Handler. When trying to convince a judge, a jury and a prosecutor that your trained police dog’s alert is probable cause for a warrantless search, training records are vital. Every K-9 Handler must learn how to articulately convey how and why they are certain that their dog is well trained and reliable. Our class provides each student with this critical information.

The best dog training techniques in the world won’t win a conviction in court if it’s not properly documented and presented. Learn from the experts what drug dog record keeping really means and how to present it to your prosecutors and the courts as proof of your dog’s reliability. HITS Training & Consulting instructors will discuss the latest legal updates affecting police drug dogs.
