We support organisations in Paisley, Renfrewshire with drug detection dogs deployed in proactive and passive roles, adapting each assignment to the setting and the people using it.
In proactive mode, we direct the search towards vehicles, baggage and physical spaces. The handler works through the agreed locations in sequence, adapting the pattern to obstructions, access and site conditions.
A passive deployment supports checks around people at a planned screening location. The handler monitors the dog’s trained indications and coordinates with site staff so the process remains controlled and respectful.
We can alternate between these methods as the agreed brief requires, keeping site staff informed throughout. Our handlers follow NASDU standards and prioritise considerate working practices, canine welfare and proportionate delivery.
