PATROL UNIT
THE BEST PROTECTION
K9 units have consistently demonstrated their effectiveness as both physical and psychological deterrents to crime, offering a cost-effective solution for enhanced security. The presence of trained dogs not only enhances protection but also serves as a non-lethal alternative to armed guards, catering to diverse client needs for heightened safety. Their ability to intimidate potential threats while ensuring a safer environment underscores the universal appeal of K9s in security roles.
PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE SOLUTION
Our patrol units feature expertly trained K9s paired with handlers who employ various tactics to deter criminal activities such as trespassing, vandalism, and harm to individuals. The inclusion of K9s enhances team efficiency by reducing personnel requirements, as they can effectively clear buildings and serve as a powerful psychological deterrent. Additionally, our K9s are customized to meet clients' specific security needs, ensuring tailored protection that aligns with their unique requirements.
THE PROS KNOW
Research indicates that areas with K9 patrols experience significantly lower crime rates, including reductions in break-ins, theft, vandalism, and trespassing. For instance, one study revealed a 25% decrease in break-ins and theft at properties with K9 patrols. K9s are incredibly effective in detecting intruders, utilizing their exceptional sense of smell, sight, and hearing to identify potential threats from as far as 1,000 yards away, making them an invaluable asset in crime prevention.
ALL IN THE DETAILS
K9 patrol units are deployed to various client sites, utilizing randomized patrol routes to effectively deter potential criminal activity. The trained K9s will alert handlers to individuals who intrude too closely, employing a bark and hold technique to prompt the unwanted person to vacate the area, followed by verbal commands for further direction. While Byers K9 units primarily focus on defense rather than aggression, certain government contracts may require active aggressive responses, highlighting a distinction in their operational protocols.
​
Our popular clients are construction sites, who mostly provide secured properties surrounded by 8-10 foot fences. To mitigate liability, we ensure clear signage is placed in high-traffic areas to warn potential trespassers of the risks involved. Each property undergoes thorough inspections to identify any vulnerable access points. Additionally, to prevent employees or contractors from returning after hours, the presence of a K9 unit serves as an effective deterrent, enhancing security before they leave for the day.
PREPERATION
The primary objective of our patrol unit is to deter criminal activity while minimizing liability. Handlers are carefully selected based on extensive training and ideally possess backgrounds in military or law enforcement K9 work, along with relevant security experience. Managing assets at this level demands exceptional attention to detail and quick decision-making, which is why only the most qualified individuals are chosen to ensure the team’s success in protecting the property and its interests.
​
All our handlers undergo rigorous training to effectively de-escalate potential conflicts and prevent them from escalating into more serious situations. Additionally, all K9s are clearly marked to maintain a safe distance from anyone attempting to approach them, ensuring both handler and K9 safety while minimizing the risk of unwanted interactions.
