Tired of investing in "finished" dogs from illiterate vendors who overpromise and underdeliver? Spending five figures of your K9 budget is no small decision, especially when lives depend on that choice. ICRWDA's experienced staff have seen too many cases of dishonest vendors taking advantage of well-intentioned law enforcement & commercial buyers. From pregnant patrol dogs to collar-rotted, frightened explosives dogs, to narcotic dogs riddled with worms—these horror stories are all too real and happen nationwide. From the Pacific Northwest to the Deep South and everywhere in between, the working dog industry deserves better. At International Casino & Resort Working Dog Association we are dedicated to raising the standard in the working dog industry. As a nonprofit with no stake other than a commitment to quality, we can connect you with reputable vendors you can trust. Find peace of mind with experts who care as much about your mission as you do. www.ICRWDA.org #icrwda #casinok9 #k9training #policek9 #k9handler #501c3 #lasvegas #nonprofit

This week, we had the honor of presenting 'Casino K9 Operations 101: Enhancing Guest Safety, the Guest Experience, and Your Brand with K9 Assets' at the Atlantis Casino for the Northern Nevada Security Directors Association in Reno, NV. We also were able to spend time with the Sparks Police Department's Neighborhood Patrol Unit which is dedicated to lowering crime rates in multi-unit residential complexes. One NPU Officer is an ICRWDA member and former Casino K9 Handler! It was an incredible opportunity to share insights on how K9 teams can elevate security operations and contribute to a world-class guest experience. We look forward to continuing to advance K9 operations in the hospitality industry! Thank you to Protective Force International NNSDA, & Atlantis Casino for hosting us! #casinok9 #icrwda #k9 #bedbugs #k9handler #k9training #malinoisofinstagram #malinois #policek9 #securityk9 #security #canineunit #securityteam #securityofficer #lasvegas #explosivesdetection #bombdetection #k9unit #detectiondog #herodogs #dogtraining #dogsofinstagram #reno #workingdogsofinstagram #nonprofit #501c3 #501c3nonprofit #lasvegasnonprofit
