Explosive & Firearm Detection

What are explosives and bombs

“A container filled with explosive, incendiary material, smoke, gas, or other destructive substance, designed to explode on impact or when detonated by a time mechanism, remote-control device, or lit fuse.”

Explosives/bombs contain many different components that our k9s are trained on to ensure they pinpoint the very source the explosive is put in. Sometimes explosives are placed discreetly into backpacks, boxes, and other items that may look ordinary in plain sight. 
 

Mobile Odor detection K9

Able to search through a crowd of people and accurately pinpoint either a person or a group of people with a potentially lethal item. Finding this needle in the haystack is the perfect way to keep an environment with large amounts of people migrating through areas such as stadiums, festivals, and other large gatherings. 

Static searching

The oldest style of searching where the K9 teams check a still item, person, or group of people on a line or even an unattended bag. These are mostly seen done at airports and by governmental department detection dogs. 

Firearm Detection

Detection Teams are specially trained in pinpointing the exact location of a firearm in all different types of settings that are at risk of a firearm threat. Whether it be settings of high-volume foot traffic such as malls, hospitals, movie theatres etc., or private events and property, Armis K9 teams effectively eliminate the risk of a potential firearm hazard.
