High Drive K-9, Inc.® is a K-9 sales and training facility based in Greenville, South Carolina, specializing in high-quality working dogs and advanced training programs for law enforcement, military, and K-9 teams. The business offers structured courses including K-9 Academy, Police K-9 Instructor training, and specialty K-9 courses designed for real-world deployment scenarios. Their instructors are experienced former police and military K-9 handlers with decades of combined field experience, including certifications from the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE). They emphasize reality-based, hands-on training with a focus on building strong handler-dog relationships through ethical, integrity-driven methods. While their primary focus is on professional K-9 units, they also provide dog sales and training resources that may benefit dedicated dog owners seeking advanced working or protection dog training. They do not advertise services for general pet owners or family dog training.

The facility operates as a kennel and training center, offering boarding and training for working dogs, and sells dual-purpose K-9s suitable for police and military roles. They host national seminars like the Hold the Line K9 Conference and HITS K9 Training Seminar, and offer a monthly newsletter with training tips. Their services are not tailored for typical household pets or behavior issues like separation anxiety or barking.

High Drive K-9 does not offer private, in-home, or group training for pet dogs. Their programs are intensive, facility-based, and targeted at professionals or highly committed individuals working with high-drive dogs in law enforcement or similar roles.
