VON DER KING KENNELS AND TRAINING, LLC

Von Der King Kennels and Training, LLC specializes in the breeding, procurement, and delivery of canines for specialized federal detection and inspection missions. The contractor focuses on producing and supplying untrained and pre-screened Labrador Retrievers tailored for scent detection tasks, particularly in agricultural and border security environments. Their technical expertise lies in canine selection based on olfactory acuity, temperament, and physical resilience, with a focus on early-stage readiness for government training programs. The firm’s key differentiator is its ability to consistently deliver live animals that meet stringent operational specifications for scent-based detection, including contraband, narcotics, and agricultural threats, without requiring extensive pre-deployment training. The contractor maintains a strong, recurring relationship with the Department of Homeland Security, providing untrained canines for deployment in customs, border patrol, and port security operations. They also support the Department of Agriculture with detection dogs trained for invasive species, pests, and prohibited agricultural imports. The Department of Justice is served with canine assets aligned with law enforcement detection needs. These relationships reflect a pattern of repeat, mission-critical procurement based on reliability and consistency in animal quality. The primary NAICS code, 112990 — All Other Animal Production — reflects the contractor’s niche in non-traditional animal services, specifically the production of working dogs as mission-critical federal assets. This positions them uniquely within the government supply chain as a specialized breeder rather than a general service provider. Their market focus is exclusively on high-integrity canine sourcing for federal detection programs, distinguishing them from commercial pet breeders or training contractors. Von Der King Kennels and Training, LLC is a small, privately held entity based in Jasper, Georgia, with no federal certifications on record. Their geographic footprint is centered on their breeding and training facility, serving federal agencies nationwide through direct delivery of live animals. They operate as a niche supplier within the federal working dog ecosystem, valued for their precision in meeting operational canine requirements.
