DiagNose training center in Neuvy, France

DiagNose canine training and handlers' training is based on the following guidelines:

1.    All our trainers have operational experience as well as professional experience.

2.    Our trainer trainees ratio is up to 1:5

3.    In each (scent) ability, we train the dogs on real materials (such as explosives, drugs, etc’.) if in a certain country a certain material in prohibited to use, we can provide/ advice on what scent simulant to use.

4.    Our dogs are trained on positive reinforcement. They work because they are trained to enjoy the work and not because they are afraid not to work.

5.    We train dogs as single purpose dogs (we think that a dog should be as excellent as he can be in one mission then mediocre in doing two missions) if a costumer insist on double purpose dog we can train for that as well.

6.    We have a standard training procedure for each working discipline. This standard is flexible to client’s demand. Our highly experienced trainers analyze with the costumer he’s professional and operational demands and according to that our CTO and projects manager built a specific training curriculum.

7.    For each working discipline in each deployment area we build a specific re-current training.   

Example: explosive detection dogs handlers course:

Target trainees: un-trained handlers with trained dogs

 Length of the course is 2 months (7 weeks + 1 operational week exams and certification)

·      The course may be extended for another 1-2 weeks due to operational standards

·       At the end of the course (following course rational) – the team (dog + handler) will be certified as an explosive detection team – after passing a certifying test.
Course prepares the trainees for an official certification test based on local authorities requirements.

Course rational:

1.    Basic theoretical lessons and bonding with the dogs

2.    Basic handling – work on a carousel, wall, building bricks, bags

3.    Private vehicles buses and truck search.

4.    Bags, boxes, merchandise and other goods

5.    Building search (indoor & outdoor)

6.    Combination of all training-operational areas and operational action and re-action

7.    Team operational theoretical test and operational certification.
