The object of the study is the professional training of future border guard officers. The subject of the study is the pedagogical conditions for training future border guard officers in the organization of the activities of canine units. The aim of the work is to provide a theoretical substantiation for a system of pedagogical conditions for training future border guard officers in the organization of canine unit activities; to develop a criteria-based diagnostic framework for assessing the initial level of professional competence and conducting an expert evaluation thereof; and to formulate scientific and methodological recommendations for enhancing the quality of professional training for this category of specialists. As a result of the research, a system of pedagogical conditions for preparing future border guard officers to organize the activities of canine units has been developed and scientifically substantiated for the first time. The conceptual and categorical framework of the theory and methodology of vocational education has been refined through the clarification of the concept of "professional competence of future border guard officers regarding the organization of canine unit activities." A comprehensive set of criteria and diagnostic tools has been substantiated, and a baseline experiment was conducted with a sample of 76 cadets. The results demonstrate that 68.4% of the cadets operate at a reproductive level, while a stagnation in the indicators for the creative level—remaining at 11.1%—was statistically confirmed among third- and fourth-year cadets. A comprehensive system of scientific and methodological recommendations has been developed and substantiated for the academic staff of the Department of Cynology at the (NASBGS). Implementing these recommendations facilitates the cadets' didactic progression toward project-constructive and reflective-innovative levels of readiness for the performance of their professional duties.
