Senses a static officer simply doesn't have.

Why K9

One trained dog unit replaces three static officers.

A K9 patrol gives you presence that scales: visible deterrence at distance, detection beyond the line of sight, and an officer-and-dog pairing that can sweep a large footprint far faster than a foot patrol. For vacant property, construction phases, and any site with significant boundary length, K9 is the most cost-effective coverage available.

Unauthorised visitors are deterred from trying to breach security by the obvious deterrent of a trained guard dog. Where intervention is required, handlers carry body-worn cameras — every encounter time-stamped, recorded, and immediately available as evidence to police.

Where K9 fits

• Vacant & managed-decline property protection
• Construction sites & plant compounds
• Distribution yards & logistics estates
• Festivals, events & gate sweeps
• Stand-alone canine cover for high-risk lockdowns
• K9 augmentation of an existing static guard team

Handler & dog standards

• SIA licensed handler, BS 7858 vetted
• NASDU certified — obedience, temperament, suitability re-tested quarterly
• General-purpose guard dog: pedigree-suitable, vet-passed, insured
• Body-worn camera issued and active for the duration of every shift
• Welfare: rest, water, transport and shelter to NASDU code

Our canine patrols can function as a stand-alone service or as an addition to your existing guard team. Sites that pair a static officer with a K9 unit see dramatically lower attempted-intrusion rates.
