What Do Customers Say About K-9 Training Smoke Bombs?

“We run a 14-week patrol K-9 certification. Our handlers go through a case of EG25s per class doing scent-line drills, then switch to WP40s for the night-ops final exam. Zero duds in two years. When you’re running a scenario with a $25,000 dog, reliability isn’t optional.” — Municipal PD K-9 trainer, Midwest US
