Delta K9 Academy

K9s for Your Specific Request.

Tell us the mission. We'll build the dog. Bespoke protection and on camera K9s, trained to your exact principals, environment, and use case, from a downtown penthouse to a global press tour.

How far we go

Every variable is yours to set.

A custom Delta K9 Academy isn't a package. It's a dog engineered around a written brief, your home, your team, your travel, your camera work, your threat profile. Here are the dials we tune.

Customizable

Threat profile

Discreet deterrent, decisive intervention, vehicle defense, hidden sleeve work, multi attacker scenarios, built to the threat level you actually face.

Customizable

Environment

Estates, urban high rises, ranches, yachts, private aviation, hotels, red carpets. The dog is acclimated to where it will live and work.

Customizable

Principals & family

Imprinted on your family, staff, and security team. Conditioned around children, elderly principals, other pets, and frequent guests.

Customizable

Public access manners

Restaurants, lobbies, boardrooms, schools, international travel. Calm, invisible, never reactive.

Customizable

On camera work

Cue trained for marks, eye line, prop interaction, sustained stillness, and stunt adjacent sequences for film, TV, music videos, and editorial.

Customizable

Breed & temperament match

Working line German Shepherd, Belgian Malinois, Dutch Shepherd, or specialty pick, sourced and selected against your exact brief.

Customizable

Handler integration

Training transfers to you, your spouse, your EP team, or an in house handler we help you hire and certify.

Customizable

Travel & deployment

Domestic and international travel prep, USDA endorsements, EU pet passports, charter and commercial aviation conditioning.
