What Are Narcotics?

The first step in helping your loved ones is understanding what narcotics are and how to identify them. Narcotics are substances that alter mood or behavior and are often consumed for nonmedical purposes. These drugs can be highly addictive and dangerous.

Common examples include:

  • Opioids (such as prescription painkillers and heroin)

  • Methamphetamines

  • Ecstasy (MDMA)

At United States Protective Services, our nationally certified K9 units are trained to detect a wide range of narcotics, including cocaine, marijuana, and more, ensuring your property remains safe and compliant.

ABOUT OUR EXPLOSIVE DETECTION SERVICES:

At United States Protective Services, our dogs undergo rigorous and regular training to ensure that they’re providing the most precise and secure services in the area. Our training mimics real-life situations so that our team is as prepared as possible for any case that requires our services.

Additionally, we train our team to handle scenarios with discretion. Often, our explosive detection services are necessary for areas with large volumes of people. In order to maintain peace and reduce anxiety, our dogs will remain calm and collected when there’s no danger present. However, when they do detect danger, they’re ready to spring to action.

Alternatively, we can also conduct our services overtly to ward off danger before it becomes a threat. Our team is flexible, and we can tailor our services to suit the needs of our clients. With our unique approach, we bolster our clients’ business protection, school safety plans, and event security goals.

In the event that our dogs do detect explosives, we work with local law enforcement and bomb squads to safely neutralize the threat.

Tracking/Article Search

United States Protective Services delivers tracking dogs all over the United States and all over the world!

Different purposes for tracking dogs:

-Tracking down people (criminals, missing persons, etc.)

-Tracking down missing objects

Our dogs are extensively trained to successfully locate the people or objects that our clients need.

Phases of a Tracking Command

A tracking command for a dog involves three distinct phases:

  1. Search Phase
    The dog actively attempts to locate a track by sniffing the ground and surrounding area.

  2. Deciding Phase
    Once the dog identifies a potential track, it sniffs longer and determines the correct direction of the track.

  3. Tracking Phase
    After confirming the direction, the dog begins following the track with focus and precision.

Tracking Dog Services

At United States Protective Services, our tracking dogs are trained to perform a wide range of critical tasks. These highly skilled dogs can:
Locate individuals—whether missing, deceased, or evading law enforcement
Recover evidence from crime scenes
Detect explosives and narcotics
Assist in arson investigations

Our facility in Dallas, Texas is equipped with advanced resources and techniques to ensure the highest level of training. We simulate real-world scenarios for both dogs and handlers, preparing them for any situation they may encounter in the field.
