C Litter "Aus dem Traumblick" - CINCO
Hello Everyone,
I have great news to report on K9 Cinco. We just returned from Florida for a
week long K9 seminar. Cinco exceeded everyone's expectations. By the end
of the week, he passed all of the tests and received FIVE (5) national
certifications. They included 2 tracking certifications, 2 area search
certifications and 1 cadaver certification. And the amazing part is that
he only 12 months old. In fact, several of the trainers and evaluators
watched him work and they wanted Cinco for themselves. This is huge compliment
because these folks have evaluated and tested hundreds of dogs around the
country. 
They could not believe he was only 12 months old and thought that
we worked great together and that Cinco was an exceptional dog. I hope
to get his international certifications after he turns 18 months old (the
minimum age for testing with this association). Below is a summary of K9
Cinco's training and certifications.
Update: February 25th 2007
Hello Everyone,
It's been a while since we have sent any information on K9 SARS. We hope that everyone had a good holiday season and are having a Happy New Year. We are now going to start sending monthly updates again since things are starting to slow down since the holidays and New Year festivities. We are happy to announce some great news about K9 Cinco. This past weekend we traveled to North Carolina for additional certifications and he passed all the tests. He now has his Advanced Cadaver certification through the International Police Work Dog Association (IPWDA). This is a very difficult test and requires the dog to conduct all tests perfectly to receive certification. The reason he hasn't received this certification before now is that the Association requires that the dog be at least 18 months old and this is the first time they have offered the test since he turned 18 months old. With this certification, K9 Cinco is the most highly certified search dog in the State of Georgia..and possibly in the United States. Listed below is a summary of his qualifications. The amazing part of this is that he is such a young dog, only 20 months old and has passed the highest level of certifications for search and rescue work. We are very proud of him. I'll send in a separate email an overview of the searches and training we have conducted over the past months. It's been a very busy time, but everyone is doing well and having a ball.and
chasing a ball! As always, thank you for your support.
Sincerely, Trace Sargent, K9 SARS
