PACIFIC COAST K9

PACIFIC COAST K9 specializes in the procurement, evaluation, and deployment of scent-detection canines for federal agricultural and border security operations. The contractor’s core capability lies in sourcing, training, and delivering highly trained Beagles and Labrador Retrievers optimized for detecting prohibited agricultural products, including pathogens, pests, and restricted flora and fauna. Their technical expertise includes canine behavioral assessment, scent discrimination training protocols, and performance validation under real-world inspection environments. A key differentiator is their focused specialization in live animal procurement and readiness for high-stakes detection missions, ensuring animals are medically cleared, temperament-tested, and operationally prepared for deployment within USDA’s National Detection and Detection Training Center and CBP training pipelines. The contractor maintains a consistent, long-term relationship with the U.S. Department of Agriculture, delivering mission-critical canines for agricultural inspection and training programs. Their work supports the USDA’s mission to safeguard U.S. agriculture through canine-assisted border and port inspections, with repeated engagements indicating deep alignment with federal biosecurity protocols and operational timelines. PACIFIC COAST K9 operates exclusively within NAICS 112990, which encompasses all other animal production not classified elsewhere—here, meaning the specialized breeding, selection, and preparation of working dogs for government use. This niche positions them as a rare provider of certified detection canines in the federal contracting space, serving a highly regulated vertical where animal welfare, training fidelity, and operational readiness are non-negotiable. The entity is structured as a 2J—indicating a small business owned and operated by an individual—and is based in Custer, Washington. While no formal government certifications are listed, their consistent award history demonstrates proven reliability in delivering live animal assets under strict federal performance standards. Their geographic positioning supports logistical access to key federal training and inspection hubs along the Pacific Northwest corridor.
