Whether you are organising an indoor or outdoor music concert, a multi-day festival, or a large-scale fete in a public park, we have vast experience of working alongside event organisers and promoters nationwide to ensure everyone has a fun time.
We believe that prevention is better than cure, and sniffer dogs and canine patrols are a highly efficient deterrent for criminal activity.
Our detection dog and handler teams are often the first point of contact the general public will have when arriving at an entertainment venue. From drugs searches while visitors queue to enter, to canine security patrols offering protection from criminal behaviour, we have the resource and experience to ensure your event goes off without a hitch.
All our dog and handler teams are professional and courteous. They are National Association of Security Dog Users (NASDU) certified and hold Security Industry Authority (SIA) Door Supervisor licences. If you are planning an event, we would be happy to discuss your requirements and provide guidance.
Illegal drugs are often a catalyst for other criminal activity, such as violence, theft, and criminal damage. Our sniffer dogs can detect the drugs before they make it into your entertainment venue.
Working with our experienced handlers, our dogs can perform two types of searches. During a passive search, our dogs will be on the lead screening a crowd, which is ideal for searching people as they enter a venue or while queueing. A proactive search will see our drugs detection dogs searching open areas, which they can do off the lead when safe to do so.
Entertainment venues require robust security to ensure the protection of all visitors. Utilising canine patrol dogs for events where large crowds are expected is a successful crime prevention measure.
Our dogs are accustomed to crowds and have been intensively trained to not feel threatened during potentially dangerous situations. They give the public assurance that unwanted behaviour will be managed swiftly and professionally, providing peace of mind and allowing you to concentrate on making your event a success.
Our detection dogs are highly trained to detect illegal Class A and Class B substances in any location across the UK.
Our tobacco detection dogs are trained to detect real and fake tobacco and search for contraband, which helps fight the illegal tobacco trade.
From crowd control to premises protection, we have dog and handlers teams available to provide a canine patrol service nationwide.
We are proud to be an associate company member of the National Association of Security Dog Users (NASDU).
NASDU promotes high standards, excellent training and ongoing education in the private security dog sector. We abide by the guidance & recommendations contained within British Standard 8517-1 for General Purpose Dogs & BS8517-2 for Detection Dogs. All our handlers are NASDU certified.
This British Standard sets the standard for screening security personnel working in an environment where safety of people, goods or property is essential.
It includes data security, sensitive and service contracts and confidential records.
Our dog handlers hold Security Industry Authority (SIA) licences.
The SIA is a statutory organisation that is responsible for regulating the private security industry in the UK.
All our handlers have undergone a Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check, which searches for criminal records and activity.
As we regularly provide services to the education and healthcare sectors, the enhanced check shows that our handlers are suitable to work with children and vulnerable adults.
The visit went very well. The assembly was very informative and the students engaged really well. Lots of talk about the dog around school too, with the tour of the site. Please pass on my thanks again to the handler and his dog. We will look at doing a follow up visit later in the year and I’ll get back to you with some possible dates.
We loved having the dog handler and her ‘team’ with us. She was brilliant and the dogs seemed to give a more-definitive indication that the others that we’d seen.
The dog handler was fantastic last week, very friendly and detailed with what he was doing.
The handler and dog were both great and we managed to cover the whole site in a morning. The handler was also very confident in talking to the larger groups in assembly. We were very happy with the day. Thanks for your good service.
The search was thorough; he was responsive to the needs of the environment and he was able to demonstrate how a dog would react when finding a substance.
What a day!!! The handler was just fantastic!!! We found quite a bit of cannabis outside the school grounds in an area we had suspicions about, and also found a student carrying drugs onto the premises. The handler was brilliant in assembly and the PSHE lesson, demonstrating how the dog found the drugs – there were lots of questions!! The dog was fab with the students and got lots of positive attention and
petting throughout the day. Absolutely brilliant!!!
