This is our third episode from our HITS K9 conference series. Speaking of HITS, they will be returning August 26-29, 2024 at the HYATT REGENCY in New Orleans, LA. Get your tickets to this conference early!⁣ hitsk9.net⁣ ⁣ ⁣ You guys ask us all the time when are we going to have more female handlers on, and we are joined by our second female handler from the HITS K9 conference, Sarah Carver. ⁣ ⁣ Carver joined the United States Navy right out of high school from Cheyenne, Wyoming. She wanted to join K9 since she started, and everyone told her that was never going to happen. ⁣She was persistent, spent her off time volunteering in the kennel, making connections, and not taking “No” as her final answer. Three years in, and she finally got what she was working so hard for. Carver spent the next five years as a Military Law Enforcement Officer and Military Working Dog Handler.⁣ ⁣Carver’s experience includes handling dual purpose bomb dogs, single purpose narcotics dogs, K9 training, and K9 veterinary care.⁣ She shares stories about her first two dogs (both of whom were 12 years old, and could care less about her), her first green dog (a dog that shouldn’t have been working, but it taught her a lot!), a scrappy little Jack Russel Terrier (and why she feels obedience is still important, even for the little guys! The JRT made such an impression on her, he ended up being her favorite to work), and a dog who earned the title of this episode Carver also discusses her path into K9 after her time in the Navy as well, including an internship with Brad at Pacesetter K9⁣.
