Today we would like to introduce you to the latest addition to our Mobile Patrol team. Blueboy, or Blue for short, is a 10-month-old German Shepherd living with one of our team members. He is already weighing in at a solid 6 stone and has plenty more growing to do!
Blue is currently on his initial four-week training programme, and once this is complete he will be ready to start in-house training to develop site familiarity and building search abilities. Following another specialist training course, Blue will be ready to start work as the first dog in the relaunch of our K9 Unit, which previously ran successfully from 1990 to 2015.
At present we won’t be offering specific commercial Guard Dog services - our aim is for Blue to be fully trained to meet British Standards and the Guard Dogs Act 1975 and to comply with associated legislation such as the Dangerous Dogs Act 1991 and The Animal Welfare Bill 2015. There are currently over 5000 security guard dogs employed in the UK Security sectors, and we can't wait for Blue to be one of them!
Watch this space for updates on his training and progress.
