By Ben Philippi

In March 2018, Guns.com was invited by Sheepdog Response to film a two-day course in Phoenix. The course was given to a group of 30 of the state’s finest law enforcement officers. Sheepdog takes training to a whole new level and our feature video above highlights what’s involved.
Sheepdog Response was founded in 2015 by special forces soldier and UFC fighter Tim Kennedy. He wanted to address the gray area between hand-to-hand combat and gunfighting. Being highly proficient in both, he offered everything that he learned during his illustrious career to the courses. Those who enroll are pushed to their limits and learn how to become stronger, faster and harder to kill.
Sheepdog offers a variety of courses to law enforcement and civilians alike. It enlists the help of a highly experienced and dedicated group of instructors from a wide range of backgrounds
