Tony Sanborn is a current serving K9 handler with the Scottsdale Police Department in Arizona.

He is also the President of the Arizona Law Enforcement Canine Association (ALECA), an organisation obsesses with empowering its members to be better police officers and K9 handlers.

Tony started life with exposure to violence and insecurity, with his father being a Vietnam War Veteran, suffering from the effects of PTSD.

His time as a Police Officer has seen him biting serious felons, conducting SWAT operations, helping other officers learn their craft, and put him on a journey of self discovery.

Tony is a man you want in your corner no matter what you want to achieve, and chatting with him was an absolute please. Enjoy the episode!

Josh Bailey started life rough, living with violence from his Step-Father, to being removed from custody, living in a family refuge centre and eventually being placed in the care of his Grandparents.

He also lived a life of service, from the 1st Commando Regiment, Air Marshalls, Protective Services, Australian Federal Police and the Australian Army.

His career with the Federal Police came to an end after a saga of administrative, legal and personal circumstances that resulted from an on duty car crash which left him with PTSD, and a fight against the organisation that was meant to have his back.

Josh now studies psychology and helps other people who also serve as he has, and provided guidance and perspective about the inherent struggles with service based organisations.

Jason Semple served in the NSW Police force for 2 weeks before almost losing his life in a stabbing attack that took the life of his partner, Peter Forsyth.

Jason then went on to serve more years as a beat cop, before being selected for the elite Tactical Operations Unit, where he served with distinction before undertaking contracting in Iraq at the height of the conflict.

Upon return, he was recruited for the Australian Federal Police (AFP) ORG, an emerging unit for service overseas. It was here that Jason made his name as a sniper, a skill he has maintained ever since.

Post service, Jason is focused on being a father to his children, a husband to his wife, and a significant contributor to this community.

Pete is a former Special Forces soldier of the 2nd Commando Regiment and now owns Cardinal Advisors, an advising company for business owners. 

He earned his way into the 2nd Commando Regiment through the Direct Recruitment Scheme (DRS) and completed multiple SOTG rotations to Afghanistan, spent a number of years with the Tactical Assault Group (EAST) as well as a tour of Iraq and a Private Security Detail to the Middle East. 

He successfully moved from the Special Operations world into the business world and now helps business owners navigate the complexities implicit with that industry. 

Pete is a former colleague of mine and a good friend. It was awesome to shed some light on his story as well as the immense value he has added to my life both personally and professionally.

Shane is a former member of the Victoria Police.

He spent time on the road as a general duties officer before moving into the elite Special Operations Group (SOG), a unit dedicated to Counter Terrorism.

We discuss how his time on the road influenced his desire to be a CT specialist and hunt the worst of Australian society.

He was also significantly injured in a rappelling accident which saw him battle physical and mental injuries for over a year before getting BACK into the SOG.

He now works for Police Legacy as well as public speaking engagements to share his experience and the perspectives gained.

He was an absolute riot to chat to and hang out with and someone I’ve added to the circle of people around me!

Glenn Cooke is a veteran of the working canine world in Australia.

His early impressions in the training world left him insatiably curious and thirsty for knowledge, which he continues to this day which means Glenn presents as an extremely technical, capable and knowledgeable trainer.

He worked the streets of Melbourne in the late 80s and 90s with violence all around him as a Security K9 handler, so he is no stranger to the dark side of what the canine world can encounter in their daily duties.

We delve into his personal journey not only in the dog world but his earliest influences in the family home which has significantly shaped who Glenn is today.

Glenn is also a co-host of The Canine Paradigm alongside Pat Stuart, a podcast dedicated to the working canine world.

He was an absolute pleasure to chat with and someone that we will definitely be associating with more.
