ScentLogix has developed the K9Logic™ training method, a scientifically based K9 training program which designed to be used in conjunction with ScentLogix K9 training kits to improve the search-and-detect capabilities and efficiencies of detector K9’s. This training method, the worlds first scientifically based method for the training of detector K9’s, is implemented as follows…

1. Using the appropriate ScentLogix™ K9 training kit, train the K9 in search-and detect activities using ScentLogix™ K9 Scent Imprint Aid in conjunction with your normal training regimen or other proven methods of scent imprinting and detection.

2. After completion of the training regimen, evaluate the K9s understanding of the training it has undergone by testing K9’s ability to detect each of the ScentLogix™ K9 Evaluation Aids supplied within the specific ScentLogix™ K9 training kit used for the training regimen.

3. The K9 must elicit a positive response on each of the ScentLogix™ K9 Evaluation Aids within the Kit, to be deemed competent to detect the material that the kit represents.

4. Retrain/reinforce the K9 to positively alert on those Evaluation Aids for which it did not show an alert during the above-mentioned evaluation process.

5. The training regimen is complete when the detector creature effortlessly alerts on all Evaluation Aids available within the specific ScentLogix™ training kit.

The ScentLogix K9Logic™ Evaluation Method

In addition to being used within a training regimen, ScentLogix™ K9 Evaluations Aids can also be independently used to evaluate the competence of K9’s that have been trained with non-ScentLogix™ training aids, K9’s trained by other training centers, or K9’s trained through methods different from the center administering the evaluation.

1. Test the presented K9’s ability to detect the each of the ScentLogix™ K9 Evaluation Aids available within the ScentLogix™ K9 training kit that corresponds to the material the K9 has been trained to detect.

2. The K9 must elicit a positive response, on each of the evaluation aids within the kit, to be deemed competent to detect such material.

3. After the evaluation process the K9’s competence in detection can be optimized by retraining/reinforcing it to positively alert on those evaluation aids for which it did not show an alert during the evaluation process.

4. The re-training is complete and the detector K9 is deemed competent to detect a material targeted for detection, when it effortlessly alerts on all the evaluation aids available within the specific ScentLogix™ training kit that corresponds to the material for which it is being tested.
