1. OBJECTIVE: U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) is an agency established under the Department of Homeland

Security (DHS), that is tasked with the mission of providing security at U.S. borders and ports of entry. CBP is also responsible for processing all persons, vehicles, and cargo entering the U.S. CBP is also responsible in protecting U.S.

agriculture and trade by preventing prohibited agriculture products, plants, and invasive pests from entering. Canines are an integral part of the layered approach of inspections at the border.

CBP’s Enforcement Canine Program, which refers to its collectively managed canine team operations and training, is critical to achieving this mission. The primary goal of canine teams, each consisting of a certified detection canine and a certified handler, is to detect and apprehend persons attempting entry into the United States whose intent is to organize, incite, and carry out acts of terrorism. The Canine Program's secondary goal is detection and seizure of controlled substances and other contraband, often used to finance terrorist and criminal drug trafficking organizations.

The Agriculture Canine Program supplements the inspection process of agriculture specialist at ports of entry and is part of CBP's layered approach in detecting and preventing prohibited agriculture products, plants, and invasive pests from entering the country and causing devastating harm to our agriculture industry, trade, and economy.

2. SCOPE OF WORK: As needed, the contractor shall provide all labor, materials, supervision, and facilities necessary to satisfy the veterinary requirements such as routine care of the Canine Program (e.g., veterinary doctors, veterinary technicians, administrative staff, medication, syringes, needles, tubes, intravenous fluids, gauze, bandages, veterinary clinic with patient rooms, etc. The number of canines may fluctuate with canine assignments.

2.1 The contractor shall ensure that only authorized veterinary personnel (veterinary doctor, veterinary technicians, and support staff) have access to CBP canines. Access to and contact with CBP canines by the general public and other animals is strictly prohibited at all times.

2.2 The contractor shall ensure that the Veterinary services personnel do not identify or point out to anyone the identity and location/runs of CBP canines. At any time, information about the CBP canines should not be disseminated to anyone, other than the CBP Canine Enforcement Officer (CEO), Agriculture Canine Specialist (AgK9), or a Canine Supervisor.
