The Action K9 approach
Protection built around your requirements.
Trained dog-and-handler teams for sites where a visible, mobile security presence can deter trespass, theft and vandalism before an incident escalates.
Choose a dog team when the site needs a strong visible deterrent and an officer who can patrol larger or more exposed areas.
The relevant SIA licence and current dog-team credentials should be confirmed before mobilisation
Dog and handler operate as one controlled team
Operational readiness and continuation training relied on for the assignment should be evidenced
Escalation and reporting expectations are agreed for the assignment

How we work
From first brief to live cover.
A security service is only useful when the handover is clear. These stages turn the initial concern into an assignment the deployed team can act on.
Assess
We review the site, operating hours, access, assets and current concerns.
Plan
Patrol areas, handover points and escalation instructions are set around the actual risk.
Deploy
A suitable dog-and-handler team arrives briefed for the location and required cover.
Review
Changes to the site or threat can be reflected in the assignment instructions.
Your service proposal
Clear scope. Agreed expectations.
The website starts the conversation. The written proposal should turn it into defined duties, deliverables and commercial assumptions before work begins.
What the proposal should define
- Written assignment instructions covering patrol areas and duties
- Confirmed cover hours, access arrangements and handover contacts
- Agreed incident escalation and reporting procedure
- Relevant personnel and dog-team credentials identified in the proposal
What shapes the quotation
- Site location, size and patrol environment
- Required hours, duration and number of teams
- Mobilisation notice and start date
- Access, welfare facilities and any additional site controls
No licence, qualification, response time, monitoring arrangement or service inclusion should be assumed from general website wording. Confirm the evidence and final scope in writing for the assignment.
Before you enquire
Frequently asked questions.
Is a security dog team suitable for a live construction site?
It can be. The assessment considers workforce movement, deliveries, public boundaries, plant and safe patrol routes before a deployment is proposed.
Can cover be arranged for nights or weekends?
Yes. Tell the team the hours, start date and expected duration so they can assess availability and the right cover pattern.
Does the dog work separately from the handler?
No. The handler remains responsible for the dog and the deployment is planned around a controlled dog-and-handler team.
Which licences and dog-team credentials should be confirmed?
The proposal should identify the SIA licence relevant to the guarding activity and the current dog-handler or team qualification relied on for the assignment. Ask to see evidence before mobilisation.
What reporting can be included?
Assignment instructions should state the required handover, incident and routine reporting. The format and frequency need to be agreed for the site rather than assumed from the website.
What affects the quotation?
Location, patrol environment, cover hours, contract duration, notice, number of teams and site welfare arrangements all affect the proposed scope and price.
