K9 Medic Course
The K9 TECC/TCCC course focusses on providing emergency care for K9 dogs in situations with an increased threat or situations that have been preceded by a situation with an increased threat and enables participants to stabilise life-threatening injuries, treat them in a correct way and hand the animal over to a veterinarian.
Others topics that will be covered are the recognition of diseases, 1st-line injuries and pre-mission planning so that, during the excercise, the doghandler and the medic can evaluate the employability of the dog critically and where possible increase it with the help of simple actions.
Who is this training meant for?
The K9 TECC/TCCC course is suited for professionals that are working as a doghandler or medic for the government or are working with dogs for their work in a high-risk environment such as security and surveillance units or USAR.
Besides the three-day training, TGA offers the possibility to organise tailor-made trainings to meet specific needs or support by means of scenarios or advice.
All K9-courses are being organised by recognised veterinarians and experienced doghandlers with a background at the Special Forces.
