Procurement Checklist

Marine IED Detector Dog Program

Having recently been awarded a contract to train dogs and handlers for deployment with the U.S. Marines to locate IEDs in Iraq and Afghanistan, K2 is in the process of procuring Labrador retrievers who can perform at a high physical level, who love to work, and who love to be around people.

Dogs accepted into our program will learn to detect explosives and then will be paired with a young Marine handler. This team will be sent overseas and will work together to find the homemade explosives used by our enemies to maim and kill our troops. Labs in this program have saved countless lives and have actually brought good will to the civilian population through their always friendly demeanor. They are invaluable tools in the fight against terrorism, and while they work hard in harsh conditions, to date no dog in this program has been lost to combat.
