K9 Security Units
We offer highly trained K9 (Canine) Security Units and Handlers across the Northern Territory for both short term and long term services.
Security dogs present an immediate visual deterrence and their acute senses detect movements that may otherwise go unnoticed.
Our K9’s and Handlers have an intricate familiarity with the Territory, offering the ‘ultimate deterrent’ in this industry. They are ideal for perimeter patrol settings such as mining, construction and car parks.
Our K9 Handlers are equipped with the necessary resources to maintain a safe and hygienic environment including signage, secure leads, muzzles and harnesses.
Safety Policy with K9 Handlers
The purpose of Security Dogs in our workplace is strictly for the protection of the Handler and to provide a deterrent to members of the public who may physically engage the Handler.
With our ‘no chase, no apprehension’ policy, Security Dogs are not to be used or unleashed to pursue or attack members of the public.
Our strict policy governs the deployment of trained K9 Security Units at all times. It protects both the welfare of the dog and the safety of all personnel:
- When patrolling, the Handler will secure the dog on a hand-held lead
- Apart from the allocated Handler, no one is to approach the Security dogs on duty
- Security Dog must not be left unattended on site
- Security Dog must not be chained to any object where it can access passers by
- While travelling, Security Dog must be secured in Mobile Patrol Unit with harness or cage mount
- Handlers must maintain a minimum 5 metre safety distance when moving among the public
Our Mobile K9 Patrol Units meet the 5 Star ANCAP Safety rating and are also compliant with mining and construction sites.
They are equipped with GPS tracking, safety duress alarm, amber lights, reflective strips, canine cages and purpose-built lights for high visibility patrols.
