March 28–29 | Primal Canine – Gilroy, CA
This two-day workshop is designed to introduce handlers and dogs to the foundations of detection and imprinting, while preparing teams for K9 Street League (K9SL) Detection Trials.
Led by Harley Freeborn, K9SL Decoy with a 10-year military background, this workshop pulls directly from real-world operational experience. Harley currently works in private contracting, providing detection services for major events such as the Super Bowl, X Games, and other large-scale venues. His dogs have achieved multiple confirmed firearm finds, making this instruction grounded in practical, proven methodology—not theory.
What You’ll Learn:
• Detection imprinting fundamentals
• Building clear indication and commitment
• Handler mechanics and timing
• Environmental confidence and problem-solving
• Preparing teams for K9SL Detection Testing
This workshop is suitable for:
• Sport handlers entering detection
• Working dog handlers building foundations
• Trainers looking to add detection to their program
Whether you’re new to detection or tightening up your foundation, this workshop is built to give you clarity, structure, and confidence moving forward.
