Why explosives detection dogs in the Harz Mountains?
The Harz Mountains are a region with special security requirements: Critical infrastructures such as dams and energy plants, flourishing tourism with major events and historical cultural assets require reliable security measures. Explosive threats can not only endanger human lives, but also cause lasting damage to the regional economy and infrastructure.
Explosives detection dogs offer the most reliable method of detecting explosives and improvised explosive devices (IEDs). Our K9 teams are specially trained for the requirements of the region and are familiar with the local conditions.
