Ron Coles

Director, Safety and Security University Physicians Hospital, Speaks about His program with Zauberberg K9 as a support member.

Greetings, my name is Ron Coles. I have been Director of Security at University Physicians Hospital in Tucson Arizona for 4 years. I started our K9 program 3 & 1/2 years ago. After one year, paying for training with the vendor we purchased the dogs from, the whole unit did not progress in performance as it should have been for the amount of time and money spent- and training we had done. I asked a staff member to look for a new vendor to purchase better dogs and training. The staff member found Zauberberg K9 Academy on the Internet. We contacted Zauberberg and set up an appointment for a visit at the facility in McNeal Arizona. What we saw that day, was just amazing! The facility, the dogs’ performance, the manner the training was conducted….we knew we had come to the right place. Since then, we were fortunate to purchase a dog from Zauberberg K9, and contracted for an annual training agreement. I consider UPH’s program to be the best Hospital K9 group in Tucson and just as capable if not more than any of the law enforcement agency in the area. We owe that to the training and professionalism provided to us by Zauberberg K9 and we look forward to renewing our contract with them in July 2009.

Very Respectfully,

Ron Coles
