Each K-9 unit comprises a trained security dog, a handler, and a dedicated welfare vehicle, allowing them to be based outside buildings and on empty sites or car parks. Unlike traditional guarding, our K-9 units do not require welfare facilities, such as toilets and canteens.
Working in unison, a team of dogs and handlers provides one of the most effective forms of on-site security. With their acute sense of hearing and smell, our dogs can locate any intruder, regardless of how well hidden they may be. Their speed and agility make short work of any chase, ensuring a successful outcome should they encounter an unwanted intruder.
Guard dogs offer an efficient and effective security solution at little more than the cost of a manned guarding service, making them a smart choice for any business.
