Good afternoon,
HOU K9 is in need of decoy role players to assist in our upcoming K9 training sessions here at Hobby Airport. Below are the open dates/times for April 2024. If you have volunteer members that are interested and have spare time to share with our K9 units, we would love for them join us. Please feel free to share this information to those who may be interested. Participants just need to give us a heads up on which date is of interest and provide name/contact information so that we may add them to our training calendar.

ATTIRE: role players/decoys generally dress in casual
attire or clothing they would normally fly in and we
encourage volunteers to bring some type of
carry-on bag to assume the look of a flying
passenger. We appreciate a variety of visual profiles
for the teams to practice on and welcome those who
wish to dress up, dress down, wear suits or just feel
like wearing pajamas.
REQUIREMENTS: role playing requires no canine
experience but participants must be 18 years of age.
The unit is an easy going group and stresses the
importance of participants having fun so that all,
canine included, are enriched by the experience. Once
a volunteer participates, they will not repeat for at
least 60-90 days to prevent canine scent
discrimination.
PARKING AT HOU: for DECOY parking, drive to the
‘Passenger Pick-up area’ (downstairs) and follow the
‘Commercial Vehicle’ signs. Look for Zone 5 and
drive all the way down to the end. Park by the
‘COH/LEO’ vehicle parking only. Once you’ve arrived,
please call from your vehicle so we may meet you and
place a parking placard on your dash.
Sincerely,
Angeline Greetan
