Our K9 Services
We provide suitable dogs trained to your personal or project requirement. We can deliver nationally or internationally and have solid experience in doing so. Having implemented K9 Units ranging from single member deployments up to full scale multiple member units, we have the hard earned experience to deliver a detection dog capability that bolsters your security team. A highly valued element of our service delivery is the initial consultancy we provide that fully assesses the needs of the client. This ensures accurate project timelines and associated costs for your peace of mind. Sole operators, international customs and government agencies and tier one corporate entities requiring a range of detection needs from bee disease detection dogs through to termite, drug and explosives dogs, provide an example of our scope of service and demanding customer base.
The K9 Centre is proud of our K9 Detection team training and management programs. Each program is custom tailored and designed specifically to encompass client needs. This service can be a stand alone offering for already developed K9 Units or it can layer on top of our detection dog training and sales. Whether you want to re-train and re-organise existing teams or incorporate new handlers we support your requirement via online and/or onsite course delivery. A full assessment of the handlers capabilities is conducted initially to determine the training gap and then the course is rolled out in a manner that gels with your operating schedules and human resource requirements. We draw on our successful background in K9 handler training management to help you build and sustain your Detection Dog teams.
The K9 Centre is an industry leader in Australia for providing explosives and drug detection dog services to the corporate sector. Our detection dog and handler teams are fully trained, certified to exacting standards and bring a long history of detection dog industry experience to each of our client deployments. We will conduct searches for a large range of target material. No request is denied. We have experience using our teams in and around, heavy and light vehicles, building interiors and exteriors, luggage, food, people and other animals as well as operations in large scale industrial and commercial environments. Our dogs are imprinted on real odour – NOT pseudo. We provide professional and confidential services and ensure a safe and secure environment for our clients. A full reporting service is also offered to meet client procedures if necessary.
Family Protection Dog Sales
Our family protection dogs are a safe, reliable asset for your family. The protection training program we develop for your dog is based on a detailed assessment of your particular requirement. The dog that becomes your personal protector will undergo training in a home and lifestyle environment relevant to your needs. Once the dog is trained to the desired and agreed upon level we will test its capabilities in a relevant scenario setting to ensure competency and to allow you to understand the potential of your dog while developing your handling skills so you understand the handling commitment you must make as it’s owner. The dog is part of your family with an important role to play so you and your family members must take on the role of dog handler. Maintaining the highest level of privacy and discretion while working with you and your family is important to us. We do not have a large number of dogs in kennels to choose from. We will source and train a dog for you or we will take your dog if it is suitable and train it in the necessary skills. To achieve success in this program takes time so quick timelines are not offered. Contact Martin Dominick info@k9centre.com and let us know how we can help you!
General Purpose Police Dogs
Training a dog to be proficient in general duties police work is a demanding and highly skilled process. Obviously the skill requirements for police dogs deployed in a Military setting will differ from those skills required to function effectively in a Federal or State Police Dog asset. Fundamentally, though, all Police Dogs require suitable drives, intelligence and traits to ensure successful graduation but the end deployment competency will be determined by the actual workplace setting each dog will be working in. Our training experience has taught us that each dog within the nucleus of the complete K9 Unit will also have its own individual training and development requirements so a further detailing of training plans will be necessary. For further information please contact Martin Dominick direct at info@k9centre.com
Detection and Protection Dogs
When we use the term ‘specialist K9’ we are referring to the training of a dog to be competent in any working role requiring a certain set of valuable skills. In this industry it is taken to mean a detection or protection dog. However our Specialist K9 ‘Consultancy’ service applies not only to those dogs that are trained in these very demanding disciplines it also refers to the embedded K9 units these dogs belong to, the handlers of the dogs, the instructors of the K9 teams and the management personnel charged with the successful operation of the Unit within the larger organisational picture. We are proud of our specialist consultancy projects and value highly the experienced service delivery we can bring to the table for our clients. Further enquiries for any consultancy needs should be directed to Martin Dominick at info@k9centre.com
