School Detection Dogs Can Secure Your Campus



School detection dogs are practically a must have for any large school, and especially schools located in at-risk communities. Schools are supposed to be safe and secure centers of learning. Unfortunately, they are sometimes the target of gunmen and can become literal breeding grounds for drug use and abuse. School detection dogs can help you address these issues.

So, what is a detection canine? Dogs are man's best friend and they can also be our best ally in fighting crime. Dogs have an incredible sense of smell. Believe it when we say that dog can smell things we can't even imagine! A school detection dog can be trained to detect dangerous and illegal substances, including drugs, weapons, and explosives.

Not just any dog can be used in this role. Only the finest breeds and finest lineages can be trained to search for drugs, explosives, and other illegal substances. Universal K9 uses the best dogs and the most thorough training tactics available. As Brad Croft emphasizes, “Training a search dog starts with selecting the right dog, but ends with top notch training by our world-class experts.”

School detection dogs are especially effective if your school has only one entry point. If so, you will be able to use your canine to screen the vast majority of people coming in and out. Once students and other people realize that the school is being guarded by a specially trained search dog, they will be far less likely to bring anything illegal to school.

You can also contact Universal K9 to conduct a sweep through your school. If you want to crack down on drug abuse, a dog can sweep your lockers and classrooms. If students are indeed bringing drugs to school, chances are excellent that our dogs will pick up on the scent! Further, if students know that there is a high chance of a search dog being brought into your school, they will be less likely to bring either drugs or weapons onto the premises.

Make sure you safeguard your school's status as a center of learning. When students feel safer in school, they are better able to concentrate. This, in turn, will lead to increased learning, and isn't that what schools are there for in the first place? A search dog will help you ensure a safe learning environment, which will increase satisfaction among teachers, staff, parents, and students themselves.
