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.

We support organisations in Horsham, West Sussex with drug detection dogs deployed in proactive and passive roles, adapting each assignment to the setting and the people using it.
For a proactive deployment, we establish a search route through the relevant spaces. Vehicles, lockers, bags and rooms can be checked in a planned sequence rather than approached at random.
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.
We can combine both methods, screening arrivals before searching storage or vehicles at a quieter time. Our handlers work to NASDU standards, with welfare, discretion and clear communication guiding the deployment.
