Our dogs are very useful resources
as a counter terrorism measure in
the Port of Liverpool to implement
the International Ship & Ports
Facility Security Code (ISPS)
which was introduced on the 1st
July 2004 where they are employed
searching ships stores, HGV's,
cargo and baggage for the visiting
cruise liners that frequent the
port.
Our dogs and handlers are
trained to detect live explosives
and firearms - around buildings,
vehicles or people. We train
and re-train with live ammunition,
in line with home office
guidelines.
