Guard and Detection Dog Solutions
VIP Security’s guard dog security services and patrols provide a physical deterrent as well as powerful support in times of need. The team are most proficient at guarding large or difficult terrain.
The senses of dogs are much more refined than that of a human and our canine companions can often detect the presence of intruders long before a static guard or CCTV system. Our dog handlers are professionally trained and fully licensed to work as a team. All VIP dogs and handlers undergo continuous assessment and attend regular training sessions to keep up to date with legislation and latest working practises.
Drug Detection and Explosives Dogs (Passive Dogs)
This specialist passive dog security taskforce can be employed at airports, railway stations and docks to deter the importation or trafficking of illegal substances or detect explosives and/or firearms. We employ ex-military and ex-police personnel, who have the experience and knowledge for such delicate deployments.
The ’drugs dog team’ can also be hired by licensed premises throughout the UK to detect and deter the use and sale of illegal substances on or around licensed premises.
Event and Crowd Control Dogs
Guard dogs are vital when planning any indoor or outdoor event. Not only are the crowd control dogs a deterrent from undesirables they are also a great benefit when controlling and managing large groups of people or areas. We can provide fully trained and licensed uniformed handlers and dogs for events large and small.

All of our personnel are highly trained and receive the full back-up of our 24-hour manned control centre.
