"In today's modern society, modern problems cannot necessarily be solved with modern solutions alone. Canines have been involved in modern policing since the Middle Ages, commonly used for patrol duties, officer protection, suspect apprehension, and most importantly, area security. K-9 units are considered irreplaceable in contraband detection and human trail tracing, mainly due to their scent-detection capabilities. However, there are still nuanced questions about its efficacy and role in contraband detection.<br/><br/>This study highlights and explores the experiences of K-9 units at Ayala malls in Cebu. In addition, this study employed a qualitative descriptive phenomenological research design, utilizing a researcher-designed approach involving seven K-9 Handlers.<br/><br/>The study is conducted at two (2) Ayala Malls in Cebu, specifically Ayala Center Cebu and Ayala Central Bloc. This study aims to explore the experiences of K-9 units in detecting contraband from the perspectives of K-9 handlers and security officers.<br/><br/>The themes created to the first problem referring to the experiences of K-Handlers in detecting contraband at Ayala Malls were the following.
