Securitas Flies High With Ground-Breaking Certification - Securitas

So, it's official. Our Department for Transport has finally fallen into line with EU Regs and authorised the use of explo detection dogs to screen aviation cargo. This means we'll have the first fully licensed HMG none emergency services dogs working in the UK. Great news I hear you say, well...
