Should I use a security dog to protect my estate?
I frequently get asked if there is a benefit to having a dog and handler team to protect estates. The unequivocal answer is a resounding yes.
For 34-years, I have had the great pleasure of working and training operational police dogs, and I still find myself in wonderment at their abilities.
On countless occasions, my dog has alerted me to suspect at large where the opportunity to apprehend them was exclusively down to the fantastic detection capabilities of my dog.
Some argue it is too expensive to engage a security dog and handler team. The truth is when it comes to protecting an estate or high-risk premises; it is significantly more cost-effective when you take into account the unrivalled capabilities of a security dog and handler team.
Generally speaking, dogs have an olfactory sensitivity 100,000 to 1,000,000 times greater than their human counterparts. Code 9 Security's dog section takes full advantage of these superior abilities, with a more formidable deterrent, an unmatched detection capability and a resilient interception ability than a non-canine assisted security team.
Our security dogs will hear sounds at a range of 200-yards; in contrast, a security officer will hear the same sounds at a distance of only 20-yards.
Even more impressive is the sense of smell. A German Shepherd has 225,000,000 scent receptors; by comparison, you and I have a mere 5,000,000.
