Army Ranger, Green Beret, K9 Handler, Double Amputee, Ballroom Dancer. Should we go on? Sit and be inspired by a man who has served in some of the most elite military units both before and AFTER losing both legs on duty and how (in his words) after receiving his “lowering kit” he never let it or anything stop him from achieving any goal. We talk everything from the opioid crisis in our injured veterans and how he approached it, to the organizations who helped him, the organization he is now part of helping others and what he does in his spare time. Be sure to follow Chris on IG (once he figures out how to use it) @2004vmc and Facebook NOW at MSG Chris Corbin!

Third up in our Double Drop from the B3 Conference is the man, the myth, the legend Jerry Bradshaw to talk about skills transitions.!A large part of scenario based training is ability of the dog and handler to go from a high state of drive and arousal to a mid state and seamlessly move from one skill to another.

In this episode the guys sit down with Don Blair. Don’s long career has spanned everything from Border Patrol, Law Enforcement, JSOC and all the way to pets. They talk about detection, the future of the TSA program, the integration of Border Patrol into Homeland Security and the Border Patrol K9 program being the single largest law enforcement K9 program in the world. They talk at length about the day-to-day operations of a Border Patrol K9 team and how the US uses them to stop the flow of money, drugs, guns and human smuggling. They also talk about the much touted “Border Patrol Test” including the infamous copper pipe. They cover evolution of those tests from the beginnings as the US Customs test and the Dutch detection tests. The guys also get into certifications, the NORT test, defense attorneys and chicken clicking. They talk at length about the importance of training records and WHY you shouldn’t shy away from logging mistakes in maintenance training.

Thank you Don (and HAPPY BIRTHDAY) to learn more about Don and his upcoming seminars and where to find them check out: www.ciak9.net
