Farmhouses and their associated buildings are by nature isolated, which is ideal for thieves looking for easy pickings.
Our Rural Security service gives you the assurance that day or night, our high visibility vehicle is on patrol, making potential thieves aware that your property is guarded.
At First Response Canine Security, we specialise in the monitoring and protection of isolated, rural properties incorporating high risk, valuable machinery and livestock.
First Response Canine Security can offer dog handling security solutions to protect Livestock, Stables & Barns, Plant & Machinery, Tractors, Remote Buildings and Fuel Tanks by working closely with farmers and the police to put a stop to thefts, and alerts for suspicious people and vehicles.

The UK cost of GPS theft increased by 15% to £1.8m in 2022. However, the problem has sharply escalated in the first four months of 2023, with the cost of GPS theft doubling to more than £500,000 compared to the same period last year.
The sophisticated equipment, typically costing more than £10,000, is used to guide tractors and combine harvesters. Without it, farmers face severe delays and disruption to harvesting and cultivating work, with long waits for replacement kit.
Quad bikes and ATVs (all-terrain-vehicles) were also top targets for rural thieves. In 2022, quad and ATV theft reported to NFU Mutual cost £3m nationally, a 34% rise on the previous year.
These vital vehicles enable farmers to complete work efficiently out in the fields. Continuing supply chain issues are sending prices of second-hand machines higher, making the vehicles an attractive target for thieves.The UK cost of livestock theft rose 8.7% in 2022, totalling an estimated £2.7m.
Claims reported to NFU Mutual regularly involve more than 50 sheep being taken in a single raid, which has a devastating impact on breeding lines as well as causing huge worry for farmers about the welfare of the stolen animals.
Amid the cost-of-living crisis, diesel and heating oil thefts plagued farms and rural homes leaving some families without heat at the coldest time of year. Fuel theft doubled last year as both organised and opportunist thieves targeted the fuel sitting in tanks across the countryside.
