Today, our detection dogs are putting their skills to the test. Here are a few examples of the training they are undergoing:
Explosive Detection: Our dogs are trained to detect and identify a range of explosive materials, including TATP & HMTD, and other hazardous substances.
Drug Detection: In addition to explosives, our dogs are trained to detect illegal drugs such as cocaine, heroin, and methamphetamine.
Scent Discrimination: Our dogs are trained to distinguish between different scents, allowing them to identify specific target odors in a complex environment.
Obedience Training: Our dogs are also trained in obedience, allowing them to follow commands and work effectively with their handlers.
Agility Training: Our dogs undergo agility training to improve their coordination, balance, and overall physical fitness.
Training our detection dogs is a crucial part of ensuring their effectiveness and safety in the field.
By providing them with a range of training experiences, we can help them to develop the skills they need to keep our communities safe. #TrainingDay #DetectionDogs #K9Training #safety #work #training #environment #help #fitness
