Firearm Detection

With the increase of domestic terrorist threats and mass shootings during public gatherings, the need for firearm detection dogs to ensure security during these events is increasing. Our detection dog teams can offer you that security and peace of mind by checking arenas, sporting events, coliseums and other areas.

Our detection dogs are trained to locate a variety of explosive compounds and formulas and can also readily locate concealed weapons and ammunition. We are able to effectively scan a venue prior to an event and our dogs are social enough around the public that they can also be employed to work during an event to intercept.
