Unleashing a Dog’s Superpower

Man’s best friend is a dedicated and lovable companion for so many, but their unique capabilities also make them a powerful asset across many functions. At Enhanced Protection Services, we know the incredible value canines bring to detecting explosives and firearms. With a sense of smell estimated to be at least 10,000 times more sensitive than that of a human, dogs are skillful scent detectives. There are six million olfactory receptors in our human noses. Dogs have a whopping 300 million!
