This off-leash detection capability allows for a more efficient, thorough and safe search of any required area.
The Stand-Off Detection Dog’s unmatched detection capabilities, superior directional control and obedience are the ultimate tool for the most dangerous situations.

The Marine Corps selected K2 in 2009 to train the majority of their Improvised Explosive Device Detector Dogs (IDDs) and Handlers. IDDs work off-leash in front of the troops to find hidden and buried IEDs. As a result of the work of hundreds of IDD Teams in Afghanistan, countless Marines came home unscathed by IED attacks.

Because of the military drawdown in Afghanistan, the Marine Corps has placed many of these highly trained dogs with Law Enforcement agencies around the United States. Unfortunately, Handler Training was not part of the hand-off. That’s where K2 comes in. We are currently offering Stand-Off Detection Handler Courses to men and women who have an Improvised Explosive Device Detector Dog but have not been trained in how to best utilize them in a Law Enforcement Setting.
