3PK9 providers stay ready for inspection by logging training and screening work as it happens, in one record an inspector can filter and read. DogBase keeps proficiency training and screening utilization as separate entries on the same dog and handler. Each record stores the training date and a server-stamped saved time that can't be backdated, and every edit to a training or screening shift is versioned. Explosives training aids are tracked with chain of custody and linked to the runs they were used in. Certifications come with reminders before they're due. When the inspector arrives, you filter the record and export it to PDF, Excel, or CSV.
For most 3PK9 providers, training and utilization records still live across paper logs, spreadsheets, and handler notebooks. Before an inspection, someone pulls it all together by hand. And when a record gets questioned, there's no clean way to show what was logged at the time and what was added later. DogBase is built to support the recordkeeping required under 49 CFR Part 1549. Handlers log from the field while the details are fresh. Every entry is time stamped, tied to a dog and a handler, and kept with its edit history. So inspection day stops being a project. You filter the record, export it, and hand it over.
I love how I can tweak the format and features as I go and can have everything in one place if needed to access. Jillian S., 3PK9
What inspection prep looks like once training and utilization live in one record.




Build training and utilization forms with your own fields, terms, and scoring: odor, cargo setup, hide placement, blank runs, indication quality. Every handler logs the same structure, every time, so the record reads the same no matter who wrote it.
Vet visits, vaccinations, medications, and weight sit on the same profile as training and utilization. See whether a performance dip is a training issue or a health issue before you schedule that team.
Filter by dog, handler, type, or date range and export to PDF, Excel, or CSV. Hand an inspector, a client airline, or your own internal audit a clean record without rebuilding it by hand.
Start with one handler and one dog. Roll out across your screening teams when you're ready. Handlers, trainers, and supervisors each get the right access to the right dogs.

No. DogBase is recordkeeping software, not a certification body and not a substitute for your security program. It's built to support the recordkeeping required under 49 CFR Part 1549: training and screening work logged as it happens, tied to a dog and a handler, with timestamps and full edit history. What your program requires is still set by your security program and the regulator.
Yes. Custom Type Builder lets you build training types and action types with your own fields, terms, scoring, and outcomes: odor, cargo setup, hide placement, blank runs, indication quality. Screening shifts log as actions with time on task, kept apart from proficiency training. DogBase will build your first custom training type for free, based on how your teams train and screen today.
Yes. One account covers several airports and cargo facilities, and it scales from one handler and one dog to multi-location units. User types (Dog Handler, Trainer, Viewer) and three visibility levels (all, team, or own records) mean handlers see their own dogs, trainers see their teams, and supervisors see the whole operation. Analytics compare dogs and teams across sites.
Yes. Each aid gets its own record. Issue, transfer, and return are logged with location, authorizing officer, and witness, and inspection results and disposal sit on the same history. Handlers record which aids they used inside each training run, so every aid shows where it was used. DogBase keeps the record. It doesn't replace your storage, licensing, or handling requirements.
Data is hosted on Google Cloud in the United States. Inside your account, access follows roles: Admin or Member, with three visibility levels for records (all, team, or own). Handlers log on native iOS and Android apps or any browser. When an inspector, client airline, or internal auditor needs one record, share it by link instead of handing over account access.
