Division K9
Operational dog selection and dog-handler training for detection, protection and security.
A role for every dog
We first assess the intended use, environment and handler experience. We then define a technical proposal.
Selection and assessment
We review stability, motivation, health, recovery and mission fit before recommending a dog.
Detection
Search and indication work tailored to the target, environment and operational protocol.
Protection and security
Dogs assessed for control, intensity and stability in protection and security contexts.
Handler-team training
Adaptation, communication and maintenance are developed with the handler as one team.
How we select and prepare our dogs
Working Dog Solutions selects and trains working dogs for security forces, governments, authorities and professionals. From our centre in Barcelona, we supply green dogs and trained dogs for narcotics and explosives detection, obedience and protection.
We select dogs directly from our own litters or selected breeders whose genetics we know. Daily preparation includes obedience, surface work, socialisation, toy searches, drive and bite-work exercises. The level of preparation and specialism are defined according to each unit’s requirements.
The team behind every service.
Preparing an operational dog also means coordinating with the people who will work with it. Selection, training and supporting the handler are all part of our work.
