Harness, muzzle, collar, anti-slip leash... Julius-K9 is the leading brand in the European market for protective equipment and accessories for dog owners and therefore dog handlers. To choose the right equipment, the canine officer must first choose it perfectly adapted to the size and build of his dog. He performs his job effectively with a dog aged 18 months or older within the framework of the C.C.N.E.S (National Collective Agreement for Security Companies). This age of 18 months corresponds to both the end of the dog's growth as well as the end of its education and training period. It is essentially the moment when it is considered operational in the field.
