Benefits of Security Dogs
Our highly skilled dog handlers and security dogs go through rigorous training and are constantly developing their skill set and bound. As you can imagine many wouldn’t act in a criminal manner when faced with highly trained security dogs.

When it comes to security we tend to rely on what we can see, but our security dogs provide us with something very useful: their sense of smell. Did you know a security dog’s sense of smell can be up to forty times greater than the average human? This combined with their amazing hearing range it’s easy to see why they are a formidable and valuable asset to have.

Our security dogs go through years of training. This includes protecting their handler and alerting them to different sounds and smells.
When guarding your business based in Staffordshire or surrounding areas, our security dogs will potentially undertake roaming routes and patrol areas which often creates awareness of a canine being on hand, which can in turn, deter potential intruders or criminals.

Security Dogs Staffordshire FAQs
Utilising security dogs in Staffordshire and surrounding areas is a highly effective deterrent to guard against intruders, keep crowds under control, or detain aggressive offenders. Security dogs are paired with a trained handler and together they form a formidable security presence. It is estimated that security dogs are 5 times more effective than a lone security guard. At County UK we provide NASDU qualified K9 Security Dog Handler teams available in Staffordshire who are able to work at a range of premises and events. This offers an effective visual deterrent, as many offenders are put off simply by the sight of a K9 security dog and their handler.
Ultimately, if your event/organisation in Staffordshire requires security dogs it will work out more cost-effective to hire the correct resources than just security guards alone. While the initial hourly cost of a dog handler is greater than just a security guard, security dogs help to deter criminals which in itself reduces the amount of work required. Think of the insurance excess, loss of contracts through deadlines and targets failing to be met, and the boosted staff and client morale of having the calming presence of security dogs. It is also worth bearing in mind that a security dog and their handler will arrive with their own specially designed transport, thus making them more mobile.
