Learn or practice in a unique environment
Whether you are a government body or private company who deploys detection dogs, our 3500 square feet facility is perfect for ensuring the dog and handler team remain operationally competent through regular and/or ongoing training. The facility is spread over two floors with meeting/ training rooms, toilets, café and seating area, storage, office as well as our custom built training ‘house’ with multiple themed rooms including a staff room with kitchenette, office, bathroom, workspace crawl spaces and corridors. There is also a four lane interactive shooting range as well as a secure outdoor compound with training vehicles.
Watch & listen....from a distance
The facility is equipped with audio and visual recording abilities which can be viewed live in a control room by a trainer or other participants and facilitates visual self-analysis and/or critical examination immediately after the search has taken place. This media can also be provided to take away after the session for further review or evidence of competence.
There is also the option to change the audio and visual environment within the facility by reducing lighting levels, having flashing and/or strobe lighting, a variety of background noises and even smoke and/or pyrotechnics; all to make training as realistic and varied as possible.
Get a close up
To provide an even greater degree of visual and audio analysis of performance, participants can also be supplied with specialist glasses which not only record anything which is said, however, will also record exactly what the participant is looking at and can even have the camera positioned just above the individual’s dominant eye. All of this media can be not only be recorded for review, however, it can also be wirelessly transmitted to our control room to allow the trainer a real time view of what is being seen and said by the individual/s wearing the glasses.
Everything you need

Two meeting/training rooms are also available onsite which can be booked on their own or are included when the whole venue is booked.

We also have an onsite cafe to not only provide hot and cold food and drink, but also a separate space away from the training environment to allow for ‘down time’.
