Welcome to the USPCA Region 2 website. Region 2 consists of canine teams from North and South Carolina.

The United States Police K-9 Association Inc., is a non-profit organization striving for the establishment of minimum standards for Police K-9 dogs through proper methods of training.

Properly trained Police Dogs are taught to do the following:

Search buildings and areas for unauthorized persons.

Track Criminals and search for lost children, etc.

Search for evidence dropped by criminals in flight.

Search for hidden explosives, narcotics, chemicals, illegally taken game and cadaver substance.

Pursue and apprehend, with minimum force, criminals fleeing a serious crime and arrest.

Apprehend on command only and in Protection of the Handler.

Police K-9 dogs, properly trained and handled, give Law Enforcement officers one of the finest non-lethal aids in the prevention and detection of crime.

The United States Police K-9 Association is the largest and oldest active organizations of its kind.

Be sure to check the region news page for any pertinent updates about the region. USPCA Certification Rulebooks, Membership Applications, Blank Trial Registration Forms and Case of the Quarter Applications are available in the Download Section.

Note from the President:

We are now in my favorite season, autumn. That means football, cool weather and dog trials. I spoke with Cliff Matthews from Carolina Beach and they have a great weekend planned for all who are attending. Be sure to get your registration in asap if you haven’t already. Wilson PD is hosting our Fall PDII and detector dog trials December 3-5. See the links on the website for registration information. We already have the 2010 PDI trials lined up for next year. Savannah Chatham Metro PD will be hosting the spring trials and Burlington PD will be hosting the fall trials. Thanks for stepping up to host!

Vice President Bob Hoyle represented our region at the National trials in Iowa. There were many rule changes proposed that will be voted on in the spring at the National Detector Trial. The proposals are on the website so please give me your input. There have been some great entries for case of the quarter. The men and women of our region are doing a great job putting the bad guy in jail. Keep up the good work!!

Your President,
Phil Medlin
