K-9 Down
4700 Hillsborough Street
Raleigh, NC
K-9 Down is a highly specialized program designed for professional working dog handlers and emergency rescue
personnel - anyone who may respond to canine health emergencies in the field. The course is tailored for
police officers, firefighters, medics, search and rescue teams, military dog handlers or other canine
handlers with specialized training. The course is two days in length. A series of lectures are presented
the first day on topics ranging from the normal canine physical exam to toxicities and heat exhaustion.
On the second day, the group is divided and assigned to one of two half-day sessions, which offer hands-on
training in small group sessions. Please refer to the course schedule for more information. Although the
instructors vary slightly, the same course content is provided at all three locations. Space is limited to
40 registrants per course.
There is also an option for advanced medical training. This session is reserved for personnel who have previously
attended the aforementioned K-9 Down session and desire further training, or if you already have advanced medical
training in your current profession (i.e., physicians, tactical medics, paramedics, etc.). This advanced course is
only being offered at NCSU.

Active Shooter Tactical Operations and Rescue Course
March 26 - 27, 2010
Middletown, Bucks County, PA
May 15 - 16, 2010
Blakeslee, Monroe County, PA
Our two day Active Shooter Tactical Operations and Rescue course is by no means standard training,
and is not for everyone. This course is teaching the physical and psychological effects of hearing gunfire
and running towards it. Your training will not start at the doorway, nor will it end when your adversary is down.
This course will develop the operator's "combat mindset" and give them the confidence to enter an
extremely violent situation and prevail. This course will teach the operator to think, and respond without
hesitation. You will learn multiple formations, tactics, and techniques to gain entry, seek out,
eliminate threats, and extract the injured. The operator will be exposed to confusion and chaos in
this class as it is what they will see in the real world.
Training will consist of minimal classroom and minimal down time. Force on Force and hands on practical application
against seasoned combat veterans acting as role players will be the bulk of your two days. Force on Force weaponry
and various types of live and inert munitions will be used. All Force on Force weaponry will be provided.
Your attendance in this class is subject to approval based on your training history, which must be forwarded to
T.S.C. Inc along with registration form.

Andre Vandergeten Training Seminar
280 Schafer Camp Road
Hawesville, KY
Greetings from Liberty K9! We are currently looking for dedicated K9 handlers/trainers who wish to particapate
in a very unique training seminar taught by Andre Vandergeten. He has over 50 years experience in the training,
breeding and proper deployment of dogs used by police, military and private clients around the world.
His dogs and record speak for themselves.
This seminar will begin with an intial 4 day course in April of 2010. Then every 3 to 5 months there will be follow
up courses. This will enable handlers to ask questions and work through problems that will naturally come up in
between courses. Returning for more advanced training every 3 to 5 months will ensure that the handler and K9
will always advance beyond what they were before and not come to a stalemate.
This schedule...Andre's vast experience and knowledge...and Liberty K9's expansive and challenging training facility
will ensure that both the handler and k9 receive some of the best training available today.
We encourage you to not let this opportunity go by. If you are going to use K9's...use them! Use them wisely and
effectively and to their full potential. The skills that will be presented here will no doubt be an asset to any K9 program.

Tacdogs Seminar
280 Schafer Camp Road
Hawesville, KY
Theory is good...for amateurs. For the professional that desires to come out alive, a knowledgeable, experienced
source of instruction is required. A source that understands how to get the job done, and not "say" they know.
If you are military, corrections officer, or Law Enforcement (SWAT, K9 unit, ect.)K9 handler or team, and desire
some of the finest tactical K9 training available today, this seminar is for you.
Currently active duty K9 handlers in Denver SWAT, with over 7000 combined deployments by the instructors of Tacdogs,
with Liberty K9's training facility, ensures those who attend will have access to some of the best minds and
training environments offered today. Tacdogs had developed practical and safe training techniques that are based
on deployment experience, not theory.
This seminar will be both demanding and enjoyable in nature. If you desire training that will give you the know how
and skill required in today's demanding world, look no futher. When your life is on the line, train with
experience, not theory.
