K9-PACK: REVOLUTIONIZING Military & Hunting dogs Training approach
EXPERIENCE UNMATCHED REALISM WITH OUR LATEST INNOVATION K9 PACK
Handlers regularly help their Military Working Dogs (MWDs) get accustomed to the noise of guns firing. This helps them stay composed and attentive in any situation where there might be gunfire.
Professional Military Trainers states: “We basically just ensure the dogs are comfortable with hearing gunshots. It’s important in case they’re ever in a situation where there’s shooting, so they don’t become frightened.”
Just like people, gunfire can be stressful for MWDs. That’s why handlers ensure they’re not only accustomed to the sound of gunfire but also to their handler shooting a gun nearby. This training is crucial so that when there’s a real-life situation, the MWDs remain calm and focused. They stay attentive to their handlers and what’s happening around them, ready to follow commands.
The Gun Shot Box is a formidable solution for training K9 units without using blankets which cannot simulate the real gun blast sound.

Shot training for your hunting dog
Understanding the Importance of Training Before you go hunting with your dog, it’s really important to train them well. Training helps your dog get good at finding and bringing back game, and it gets them ready for any challenges they might face outdoors. Plus, training helps you build a strong connection with your dog and keeps them safe during hunting trips. Spending time training your dog makes them better at hunting and makes your partnership happier.
Basic Gun Training Tips Gunshots are loud and can scare dogs, making them run away during a hunt. So, it’s crucial to train your hunting dog to get used to the sound of gunfire. One way to do this is by slowly introducing gunshots during training.
Start by having someone activating the Gun Shot Box while your dog goes to fetch something. Each time your dog retrieves, the person dry-shooting should get closer. Give your dog praise or treats to show them that gunshots are nothing to be scared of. This gradual approach helps your dog feel more comfortable with gunfire and reduces their fear over time.
