Advanced K9 Tactical Field Care
Techline’s advanced tactical medical canine program is taught by experienced Veterinary, Law Enforcement, and Paramedic professionals. The course is based on the Canine-TCCC guidelines. The advanced canine tactical medical training program provides handlers, medics, tactical medics, and other support members with the medical skills needed to prevent and treat injuries and illnesses in working dogs. Mastery of these skills requires extensive, specialized emergency medical services training and experience in the tactical environment. This is accomplished by teaching human medical practitioners how to transfer their existing medical skills to the canine patient using both live dogs for simple procedures such as bandaging and K9 Manikins for invasive procedures. We also work with handlers to expand their medical awareness and skills. This program covers the essential curriculum of canine pre-veterinary medicine including: Canine patient assessment Legal considerations Expedient extraction
