Challenges for the strategic inclusion of canine teams in security and defense in Colombia. Rev. Cient. Gen. José María Córdova [online]. 2023, vol.21, n.41, pp.89-110.  Epub 01-Ene-2023.

Intending to propose inter-institutional actions to involve canine teams in security and defense in Colombia, this article conducted a literature review between 2010 and 2020 to identify the multidimensional security model and the use of canine teams. As a result, their use in various tasks is evidenced, but their strategic inclusion in environmental protection, forensic sciences, and criminal investigation, among other areas, is still lacking. To this end, guidelines are proposed to advance in this area based on the Defense and Security Policy. It is necessary to strengthen the selection, training, certification, and performance processes to redesign protocols, standards, and functions for the use of canine teams in coordinated operations among various forces.

Palabras clave : canine teams; defense; drug detection; multidimensional security; working dogs.
