This photo is of a local Narcotics Officer with Ed Frawley. They are holding 1 lb. of meth found by Ed's K-9, Gabby. The drugs were found hidden in the trunk of a car during a normal vehicle search. These drugs would never have been located without the dog, there had been no intelligence that this car had dope in it.
Using a Narcotics detection dog (drug dogs) is "the most unobtrusive method available to search a suspects vehicle, house, or belongings." The goal of every narcotics dog handler should be to eliminate false indications by his dog (an intentional false indication could lead to violation of a persons constitutional rights). This video emphasizes training techniques that will provide you with a dog that not only finds drugs but also a dog that will not false hit on cutting agents and other odors.
Ed Frawley (the producer of this video and owner of Leerburg Video) is a reserve officer with the Dunn County Sheriff's Department in Wisconsin. He and his dog, Gabby, have been involved in hundreds of narcotics arrests and they have seized over $200,000 in cash while working as a part time reserve officer. Ed has testified many times in local courts and 4 times in Federal Court on narcotics cases that he was involved with.
This tape details selection testing dogs for narcotics work. We demonstrate selection testing with several breeds of dogs. The video discusses the types of narcotics to train with and the safety measures a handler is required to take with the different types of drugs.


We demonstrate how to start a dog in training and how to advance him through his training in a step by step manner until he is ready to work the street.
Training sections also include: leash handling, building the dogs indications, training the dog to indicate more than one type of drug, training the dog OFF of cutting agents and other scents. We discuss when to use corrections and when not to, we discuss how to deal with handler errors in training. We discuss how to organize a search how to read your dog during a search and how to proof a dog.
I have a section on my web site titled Questions and Answers on Narcotics Dog Training. If you have an interest in this work you may find this section interesting.

I just watched your narcotic tape and it is so straight forward and so clearly demonstrates how to do it correctly and incorrectly.
When will other people realize how to produce a tape. Quality tapes are not based upon how pretty the play but what is inside of them. I think I will mortgage my house and buy every tape you make. My wife will not be happy but who cares, I'll have a lot of tapes to watch. Please keep up the good work at producing "Quality" tapes. I will watch the tape again because I want to take better notes and write you with some questions.

Ed, You know me as Lt. Mac McGlamery of Dekalb County Police Dept. in Decatur, Ga. I have purchased your Basic Obedience and your Narcotics Detection Dog training tapes. I retired a couple of years ago but then I was hired as Chief of Police for the City of Pine Lake, Ga. I trained my Lab strictly by your tapes and never varied. I have to say he is awesome. My son is a Detective for Dekalb Police Dept. and I donated my Lab to the Dekalb Police Dept. to be used in the school system which has 97,000 students. They do locker and vehicle searches at High Schools and Middle Schools, and they do anti drug programs in the Elementary Schools. Just wanted to say thanks and tell you what great fun it was and I am working with one of the Labs pups now. What a blast.
Thanks, Mac

Ed, I just got your video on Narcotic training. Very cool stuff. A lot of things in the advanced portions are familiar (as I have handled a drug dog for awhile). Seen that done that, so to speak. What I really like is the beginner aspect. You brought a lot of concepts together. Your video is very chronological in the necessary training steps. I wanted to thank you. You have helped out a lot.
How do I obtain the necessary "Simulated Drugs?"
Second, how do you get a DEA License?
Again - Sincerely

Just wanted to thank you for the great job you did on your narcotic's video. It was good to see how to select the right dog for the job. Before seeing the video, I thought most of my dogs would be good at searching for narcotics since they are all ball nuts. However, upon seeing the tape I tried your selection tips and was very surprised to find out who really is ball nuts and who is not. It was really nice to see what to look for and what not to look for. So many times people talk about what is good and right but, it does not give you any idea of what is not good or is wrong. Everything in your video showed the good and bad (or wrong) both in the selecting and in the training. This really gives the novice a good perspective of what to do. Thank You.
