ACE WATCH DOG and 1 Year Cell Service.

Since 1986 we all have been on a constant mission to provide the best, most reliable equipment we could develop and manufacture for our K9’s and their partners.

All of these years of research and development and many lives saved started with “A Call for Help” from a K9 handler to a man with a love for animals and his fellow man who had a company that could produce the K9 products that are in use all over this great nation!

The summer of 1986 was hot as well as lethal for three police K9 dogs in Florida and Ted Smith, a K9 Deputy of the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Department, did not want lose any of their dogs!

Deputy Smith called an old High School friend that he knew had the ability to design an alarm that would alert the Deputy if the temperature in his patrol vehicle got to hot for his K9.

This call and plea for help was made to his friend John Johnston, owner of Radiotronics, a communications and specialty electronics company. John with his love for animals took on the challenge with no hesitation. John’s first step was to do research. He spent many days and nights riding with the local Palm Beach County Sheriff’s K9 units, watching, observing details and asking questions to learn what the Deputies needed. He found that there were situations when the Deputy must leave his K9 in the vehicle while he is away. In this situation he leaves the vehicle’s engine running and the air conditioner on to keep the K9 cool. This puts the K9 at risk of heat stroke if the vehicle’s air conditioner fails or the engine stalls. What was needed was an alarm system that would monitor the vehicle’s interior temperature where the K9 was located and alert the Deputy if the temperature got to hot.
