Why Choose K9 Patrols for Vacant Properties?
Unoccupied buildings are high-risk targets for criminals, squatters, and vandals. Without a physical presence, a vacant property can quickly become a liability, leading to expensive legal battles for eviction or costly repairs from arson and theft. A Vacant Property K9 Patrol provides a dynamic defense that static measures like boarding or alarms cannot match.
Our security dogs possess superior senses, allowing them to detect movement and scent hidden within large buildings or behind obstacles long before a human guard could. The presence of a professional K9 unit serves as a powerful psychological and physical deterrent, ensuring your property remains an unattractive target for illegal activity. Managed by NASDU-certified handlers, Eagle Shield provides a reliable, cost-effective solution to safeguard your real estate investment.

Every member of our tactical team is NASDU Level 2 certified, ensuring they meet the strictest training requirements in the UK.
