SECURITY & PROTECTION DOGS

Instinct. Training. Deterrence. Protection.

Specialist Canine Security Solutions

A professionally trained security dog can provide a highly effective additional layer of protection.

The presence of a suitably trained dog and experienced handler can act as a significant visual and psychological deterrent, while the dog’s highly developed senses can provide capabilities that complement those of human security personnel.

INTELLIGENTS UK can provide professionally trained Security Dogs and experienced handlers for a range of commercial, residential, public and specialist security requirements throughout the United Kingdom.

Our canine capability can be deployed as part of a wider security operation or as a dedicated specialist service.

SECURITY DOGS & HANDLERS

Our Security Dog Teams combine a professionally trained working dog with an experienced handler who understands how to deploy and manage the dog safely and effectively within a security environment.

The relationship between handler and dog is fundamental.

Our teams undertake regular training and ongoing assessment to maintain operational standards, responsiveness and control.

Dogs and handlers work closely together throughout training and deployment, developing the communication, trust and understanding required to operate effectively as a team.

Where appropriate, our dogs undergo regular veterinary and health checks and are appropriately insured for operational deployment.

A VERSATILE SECURITY CAPABILITY

Security Dog Teams can be deployed across a variety of environments, including:

CONSTRUCTION & BUILDING SITES

Large construction sites, development areas and vacant premises can present particular challenges due to their size, multiple access points and periods of limited occupancy.

Security Dog Teams can provide a highly visible deterrent and assist with patrol and detection duties.

COMMERCIAL PREMISES

Offices, warehouses, industrial premises and other commercial locations can benefit from an additional layer of physical security and deterrence.

RESIDENTIAL & ESTATE SECURITY

Security Dogs can be incorporated into residential security operations, particularly for larger properties, country estates and locations with extensive grounds or perimeter areas.

EVENTS & PUBLIC ENVIRONMENTS

Subject to the requirements of the assignment and applicable regulations, Security Dog Teams can support festivals, private functions, events and other public-facing environments.

PATROL OPERATIONS

Mobile Security Dog Teams can provide visible patrol capability across designated areas and can complement existing manned security arrangements.

SPECIALIST DETECTION CAPABILITY

Depending upon availability, certification and operational requirements, specialist canine teams can be provided for:

NARCOTICS DETECTION

Specialist detection dogs trained to identify specific controlled substances.

EXPLOSIVE DETECTION

Specialist search dogs trained for appropriate explosive detection and search environments.

SEARCH & DETECTION

Canine teams can assist with specialist search requirements where their highly developed olfactory capability provides an operational advantage.

GENERAL PURPOSE SECURITY

General-purpose Security Dogs can provide deterrence, patrol capability and support to security personnel in appropriate environments.

All deployments are assessed according to the specific requirements, environment and risk profile of the assignment.

TRAINING & PROFESSIONAL STANDARDS

The effectiveness of a Security Dog Team depends upon much more than the dog’s natural ability.

Training, control, consistency and the relationship between dog and handler are fundamental.

  • Obedience and control
  • Handler communication
  • Environmental awareness
  • Search capability
  • Patrol work
  • Controlled response
  • Socialisation
  • Operational discipline
  • Appropriate deployment
  • Ongoing assessment

Where applicable, personnel and dogs may hold relevant industry qualifications and certifications, including standards associated with recognised UK security-dog organisations.
