The Civil Nuclear Constabulary (CNC) has highlighted the role of its police dog unit in protecting critical national infrastructure. The Dog Unit, led by handlers, deploys dogs such as Nala, a firearms detection dog, and explosive detection dogs Josie and Ernie, along with trainee Evie. These dogs deter threats, detect firearms, ammunition, component parts, and explosives, and support counter‑terrorism and local policing operations. They also participate in Project Servator, a high‑visibility deterrence campaign. CNC dogs are trained to national standards, undergo regular assessments and refresher training, and can track missing people, search suspects, recover evidence, and assist in apprehensions. The unit’s presence signals CNC’s specialist capabilities and strengthens security across civil nuclear sites.
