Quality K9 Concepts

At Quality K9 Concepts, we believe in fostering positive, respectful, and enjoyable relationships between pet owners and their beloved companions. Our mission is centered around providing top-quality dog training services that cater to the unique needs of each dog and their owner.

Our journey began in December 2003 when Matt Hammond, our founder, recognized a distinct need for high-caliber working dogs within the southeastern region. With his extensive military training and experience with dogs, Hammond took the initiative to establish Quality K-9 Concepts (QK9C) to address this specific demand. Our vision was to provide top-quality working dogs, leveraging Hammond's expertise and insights gained from military dog training.

Since our inception, QK9C has been pivotal in training dogs for numerous police agencies across the southeastern United States. We have also extended our expertise to support private security firms operating in the Middle East. Our approach is professional, with a focus on each client and a customized training regimen tailored to every dog. This ensures the delivery of high-quality canine services at competitive prices.

Our team is led by Matt Hammond, whose journey in dog training commenced in 1993 with his role as a decoy in a local police department in Junction City, OR. His commitment to training escalated as he ventured into the Army, contributing to the training and support of Military Working Dogs. In November 1996, Hammond graduated at the top of his class from the Department of Defense Military Working Dog School at Lackland Air Force Base, exhibiting exceptional proficiency as a handler.

Hammond continued to build on his expertise by seeking training from esteemed European professionals, integrating this knowledge into the Military Working Dog Program. His illustrious career as a military handler encompassed securing high-profile figures such as heads of state and the President of the United States. Notably, Hammond was among 43 elite handlers chosen to represent the Military at the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, Utah. Later, he was deployed to Afghanistan, further expanding his experience and skills.
