Our Safety Dogs & Handlers
Kids Best Friends stands apart from other school security solutions because we provide our dual-purpose, specialty-trained dogs with professional handlers as a customized security team who are also integral members of the school community.
The Humans: Our Handlers
Our handlers are former military service men and women who have undergone extensive background checks and training and are loyally committed to their continued service of our country with this most honorable calling of protecting our children at school.
The Canines: Our Dogs
Our dogs excel at their important jobs of detection, emotional support and should a shooting crisis take place, protection. They also love people and are wonderfully socialized and confident in school settings of all ages.
