Drug Sniffer Dog Teams

Prevent Or Detect Drugs?

Dogs are extremely efficient at detecting drugs. So much so that regular employment of drug sniffer dogs is an effective deterrent as those potential visitors and staff who choose to handle or abuse drugs move on to venues or employment offering much lower resistance.

Protect your reputation - and your licence?

At any event or location where you suspect the authorities are likely to take a healthy interest in your patrons a friendly looking dog on a lead with its handler can make all the difference. By deterring abusers you can reduce your own problems in having to deal with people who have abused substances to the point where it affects their behaviour. You have the added benefit of being able to show the police and licensing athorities you are taking a proactive lead in keeping your premises or events clear of drugs and drug abuse.

Dog Behaviours

Where the intention is to detect people, whether staff, patrons, visitors, members or students for instance, who are carrying or who have recently used drugs, upon detection, the dog will sit near the culprit. This is an obvious signal to the handler but a passive one. Hence nobody feels threatened and dealing with the offender can be expedited with a minimum of fuss.

Also known as drug detection dogs, sniffer dogs can be used to detect where drugs are stashed. Let off the lead they will walk around a building, store, vehicle, park or other outdoor area keenly sniffing until they find where the stash is. Then they will stand or sit still close to where the drugs are looking straight at it until the handler acknowledges the find.

At least recent broadcasts on CBBC about drugs prevention in schools would appear to indicate so. They quote experts as saying drug sniffer dogs should be used in all UK schools. Links from the page indicated offer a useful insight about how kids feel about drugs, sniffer dogs and other prevetion methods.

Celtic K9 Security has worked well on a schools project, as our testimonials show. We have even helped householders suspicious of their own kids' associations, another activity cited in our testimonials.

Further information

The most widely used dogs in drugs detection are cocker spaniels, springer spaniels and labradors. Their early breeding as gun dogs marks them out for sniffing and seeking abilities. Happily these breeds are familiar as family pets, making your staff and patrons less likely to feel intimidated.
