Deter. Detect. Defend.
Vidar ASAP canines utilize a multi-faceted approach to detect indicators of potential firearms and related activities. Recognizing that these signs do not exist in isolation, our canines are trained to identify them through multiple methods for comprehensive detection.
Our highly trained canines are adept at detecting gunshot residue (GSR), enabling them to identify individuals who have recently discharged a firearm. This specialized skill plays a vital role in pinpointing suspects and supporting law enforcement efforts efficiently and accurately.
Trained canines skilled in detecting gunpowder presence are essential for identifying unused munitions. Their keen senses and specialized training enable them to uncover hidden munitions, significantly enhancing safety and supporting proactive threat prevention.
Specialized canines trained to detect the gun oils used by all major manufacturers can identify individuals carrying firearms, even if they have never been fired. This advanced capability enhances security measures by allowing for the early detection of concealed weapons.
Canines with expertise in detecting subtle changes in body language and body chemistry can identify potential threats before they escalate. Their advanced training enables them to sense and react to suspicious behaviors, providing an added layer of security and prevention in any environment.
Vidar agents are experienced ex-military and ex-law enforcement officers, uniquely skilled in coordinating and communicating with school officials and School Resource Officers to identify and anticipate specific or potential threats.
Currently, there are approximately 200,000 K9 officers. Unlike many overworked and overtrained law enforcement K9s, Vidar ASAP K9s stand out in several key ways. Our dual-purpose dogs are specifically trained for the detection of GSR and executive protection. Most importantly, Vidar ASAP K9s are highly socialized, capable of performing protection and apprehension duties in public settings with minimal risk to school children.
