On Target: Training Detector Dogs with Randy Hare: Detection 2 is the second in the Award-Winning series with Randy Hare. Randy Hare’s approach to Substance Detector Dog Training is groundbreaking.  The only Award Winning series of it’s kind; Randy’s approach is decidedly unique, proven and applicable to any substance whether narcotic, explosive or biological.  In this title Randy Hare demonstrates his techniques for completing the next 5 Objectives in his detection technique.

Once these objectives are achieved, then the student detector dog will have achieved the special attributes of the Hare-trained detector dog: The dog will possess a crystal-clear understanding of his task, and he will display the kind of obedience to odor that makes it virtually impossible to disturb or distract him during search or indication.  He will also exhibit an extraordinary degree of independence and self-belief while searching. Finally, the dog will display pronounced and obvious changes of behavior when he encounters target odor, accompanied by prolonged and intensive efforts to pinpoint the odor source prior to making a final indication.

“The first thing I noticed about this DVD is the excellent production quality--it has the best quality of any K9 training video I've seen.  Every aspect, the narration, graphics and demonstrations is presented in a way that enhances the training concepts and progression.  Randy Hare generously shares his novel methods and crucial scent detection training concepts in this DVD,” states Joan Beilfus of North Cascade K9.  “Randy’s method also couples odor imprinting with the reward in such a way that the dog ignores all other distractions and cannot be fooled or influenced by anything else in the environment.  The drive and focus of the dogs trained with this method is quite spectacular to see.”
