K9 Security

Our security dog, also known as K-9 or K9 (a homophone of canine), is a dog specifically trained to assist members of law enforcement. Dogs have been used in law enforcement since the Middle Ages.

At G3 Security, as is the case with our K9 protection dogs, their mere presence of our protection dogs can discourage threatening behaviour, such as criminal and terrorist acts.

We specialise in providing professional K9 security services to ensure public safety and customer satisfaction to a broad range of clients and sectors.

Why is K9 Security Important?

When dealing with security incidents involving multiple offenders, the presence of a K9 security dogs reduces the risk to security guards. The superior senses of K9 protection dogs can be used to detect distress, identify perpetrators, and reinforce instructions given by professional security guards.
