Desert Dog Police K9 Trials

08/09/2023

Desert Dog Police K9 Trials & Public Safety Expo hosted by Arizona Law Enforcement Canine Association (ALECA) welcomes fans and followers to WestWorld of Scottsdale Sat., & Sun., Oct. 21 and 22, 2023, in the largest Police K9 competition in the country!

These furry, four legged officers will show off what it takes to be a canine in active duty in an action-packed two-day K9 competition!

Fans witness the astounding talent of 70 Canine teams from across the USA, as they take over the Tony Nelssen Equestrian Arena and test their skills through exhilarating on-field obstacles, simulating real life scenarios that law enforcement encounters daily.

Experience the action up close with challenges that include:
Daring handler protection
Rigorous apprehensions
Risky narcotic and explosives detection
Riveting tactical obedience
Astounding agility

The family-friendly event welcomes fans to explore the 117,000 square-foot, climate-controlled North Hall filled with more than 150 vendors for eating, drinking and discovering the latest in public safety tactics including interactive displays and demonstrations from SWAT, aviation teams, discovering the most recent advances in public safety vehicles and much more.

Interested in being a vendor? There is plenty of time to sign up for a vendor booth! We would love to have you part of this event. Please email [email protected] for any questions and registration information.
