In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses:

  • Bridging the gap from training to deployment with low-profile equipment.

  • Comparing traditional and modern low-profile equipment.

  • Mistakes to avoid with low-profile equipment.

  • Importance of having properly fitted equipment.

  • Training progressions with low-profile equipment.

Key Takeaways:

  • Ideally, low-profile equipment contains both lower visibility and lower odor profiles.

  • It is critical for the dog to feel the human underneath the equipment. While you should have protection, training the dog to find the human is also important.

  • If a dog can't be satisfied with the bite they are getting on a suit, they may look for the human underneath and bite outside of the typical areas, such as ankles, which can cause more harm.

  • Use training techniques like equipment shredding drills to improve the dog's ability to find and get a successful bite.

"When we're introducing the hidden equipment, usually we want to introduce it in such a way that we can maximize the dog's experience, including having them in the right mood that we want them in when they're experiencing this hidden equipment. We also want to have decoy safety." — Jerry Bradshaw
