1. Elite Detection Skills
K9 Met Specialists are renowned for their expertise in training dogs to detect explosives, narcotics, and other contraband. During their visit, they demonstrated advanced techniques for honing these skills, using realistic scenarios to simulate the high-pressure environments the teams might encounter.
