Also joining the squadron is Gerhard's best friend, Martin Bekker, who is the only one who knows about Gerhard's recent dizzy spells.

- Following the success of 'Flying Squad' (1971) and 'Gold Squad' (1971), Kavalier Films came up with the final feature in an informal trilogy featuring Captain Nick Jansen of the South African Police. This time he is a member of the Dog Squad and the villains are a group of drug dealers, led by Rolly (Kerry Jordan) and Marko (Ian Yule). Jansen becomes involved when he picks up Steve (Eckard Rabe), the younger brother of his new girlfriend, Pat Jackson (Gaenor Becker), in a raid on a night club after the boy has swallowed some drugs given to him by Marko. Following a hospital murder and the gang stealing a shipment of drugs from a chemical company, the baddies are eventually tracked down in scenes involving various kidnappings, car chases and shoot-outs, with the canine members of the police playing a role in apprehending them. The film includes two sequences intended to illustrate the dangers of drug addiction.
- Made in the 1970s, a time when South Africans were constantly being reminded about the communist onslaught, this features Hank (originally English-speaking) and Hennery (Afrikaans-speaking), two very laid-back secret agents who, together with a black colleague (Vriend), manage to foil a terrorist plot to take over the country. They are introduced as beach bums and for at least the first half the film comes across as a not very good buddy movie. For much of the time we're not too certain of just who they are and from whom they get their orders, though once in a while they speak to someone in Pretoria. On the way into the mountains of Lesotho, they pick up a girl (a communist agent who switches sides without any qualms when she falls in love with Hennery). The unlikely baddies are an Afrikaans-speaking group of communists, disguised as members of a monastic order. Interestingly, the agents' black comrade is treated throughout as an equal and the race question doesn't really come into it.
