The ScentLogix K9Logic™ Training Method:
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…
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
The K9 must elicit a positive response, on
each of the evaluation aids within the kit, to be deemed
competent to detect such material.
-
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.
-
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.
