Drug detection dogs operate across a wide range of environments where preventing illegal substance use is essential. Typical deployments include nightclubs, festivals, educational institutions, airports, ports, logistics centres, workplaces, and correctional facilities. Each dog is expertly trained to identify numerous controlled substances such as cannabis, cocaine, heroin, MDMA, ketamine, and the unlawful possession or distribution of prescription drugs.

Across Lewisham, London, we tailor drug detection deployments to the site layout, anticipated footfall and search objectives, with proactive and passive options available within one coordinated plan.
Passive screening provides a different approach for people entering a managed space. We position the team around agreed access points, where the dog can sample scent and indicate the presence of a target odour.
For premises searches, our proactive approach concentrates on defined areas and potential concealment points. We can inspect vehicles, lockers, luggage and rooms according to the site manager’s agreed priorities.
A combined deployment can cover entry screening alongside planned searches elsewhere on site. We work to NASDU standards and agree responsibilities with your team so any indications receive an appropriate, coordinated response.
