Why Use Guard Dogs For Security?

There will be times when the only practical option is to use a guard dog unit or dog handling team, which is a specially trained security guard dog with their handler.

A guard dog can identify the source of a sound much faster than humans, not to mention hearing sounds at up to four times the distance and having a sense of smell fifty to one hundred times more powerful than that of a human.

Guard dogs offer one of the most effective deterrents against vandals, thieves and other unwanted intruders. Most criminals or potential trespassers will think twice if knowing they will be coming up against trained security dog patrols.

Security guard dog patrols are extensively demoralising to offenders as they are trained to bark and present themselves in an intimidating manner. Our dogs are also trained to show controlled aggression against anyone who confronts their handler, making them especially effective.

Just some of the situations in which guard dog patrols can be used are

  • protecting large, open areas such as car parks or open yards
  • patrolling areas which have a restricted line of sight, such as warehouses, theme parks and construction sites
  • assisting in areas too dangerous for lone security guards, such as gang territories, high crime areas or underground parking garages
  • direct protection of persons and property who are under threat

All guard dogs are able to pick up on intruders or concealed persons by scent, sight and sound, and will protect their handlers by standing their ground and showing controlled aggression.

Our patrol dogs are trained to pick up and indicate to their handlers the presence of anyone within their patrol areas, but they are also conditioned to accept other people in their environment so will only react with aggression if a threat is made against the security dog handler.

Guard Dogs - An Intimidating Deterrent

A security guard dog and handler team is a highly intimidating deterrent. Intruders know they cannot hide from the dog and do not want to fight the dog - after all, the dog does not bluff. Our dogs can work on even the toughest jobs and give their handlers absolutely assured personal security.

When the dogs are confronted with threatening behaviour they are trained and able to successfully detain and suspect until the authorities can arrive to handle the situation fully.
