Abstract: The purpose of this study is to present the results of research aimed at developing an agribusiness model based on a production system of working dogs, as an innovative productive alternative. The study focused on evaluating desirable scenarios for the breeding, training, and commercialization of dogs specialized in detection and protection tasks. Through a technical and financial analysis, a sustainable model is proposed that considers the costs associated with infrastructure, feeding, personnel, and the acquisition of training supplies, as well as a five-year profit projection. The methodology employed included the selection of optimal breeds, the design of specific training programs (particularly for substance detection), the definition of operational scenarios, and the evaluation of ethical management strategies and animal welfare. The results demonstrate the economic feasibility of the model, highlighting its potential to meet the growing demand from public and private security institutions.
