Highly Trained Firearm Detection Dogs – Specialist Gun Detection Services

At K9 Security Ltd, our firearm detection dogs are trained to the highest professional standards to detect the presence of firearms, ammunition, and explosive components. Whether concealed on a person, within a vehicle or hidden among cargo, our gun detection dogs use their highly sensitive olfactory abilities to locate weapon-related odours quickly and efficiently. Their work is vital for security operations across London and the UK, including at transport hubs, public venues, corporate events, and enforcement-led operations.

Each detection dog undergoes rigorous training from an early age, focusing on scent recognition, behavioural discipline, and handler responsiveness. Our teams are taught to identify a wide spectrum of firearm-related scents, including metal residues, gun oil, and live ammunition. Training includes simulated real-world scenarios, ensuring they can work confidently in crowded and high-pressure environments without distraction. This intensive preparation allows our dogs to operate effectively, even in complex and dynamic conditions.

K9 Security Ltd is proud to maintain compliance with the NASDU (National Association of Security Dog Users) standards. This ensures that both our handlers and dogs meet strict industry guidelines for safety, competence, and professionalism. Our commitment to continuous development means that each team receives ongoing refresher training and performance assessments, guaranteeing the highest standard of service for our clients.
