If you answered yes, the next question is what do you expect your dog to do, once the training is complete?
There are many levels of protection dog training, each with their own minimum standard of competency.
Our intention in training is to ensure, first and foremost, safety and reliability in the performance outcome of the dog.
The following process occurs:
1. Assessment – Is your dog naturally capable of handling the protection dog training regime?
2. Decide on the training level needed to meet your goals – No need for military level training if you just want a protection dog while you’re jogging.
3. Develop the training plan – A plan that suits your work commitments and designed for your family lifestyle.
4. Conduct the program – This is based on the above training plan time frames.
5. Test capability – Once the training is completed we test in a real world scenario just how competent your dog is.
At the very least your dog will benefit from and enjoy some robust training exercises. At the risk of sounding anthropomorphic it is like taking an angry street kid in and training him in a martial art. He will learn to control his anger, he will become more calm and will not react to stimulus that poses no threat.
Many of our clients have initially felt that if they ask a trainer to train their dog to perform a protection role they are being irresponsible. This is because of a blanket understanding promoted, by some well-intentioned but inexperienced people in the dog world today that protection training = uncontrolled dangerous aggression. However when the description of a well-trained protection dog is discussed fully, the client feels more at ease with this type of training.
If the trainer knows what they are doing the dog will be a safe, reliable asset to your family rather than a liability.
In my opinion every dog that is part of a family dynamic should have a role that benefits the family. Sometimes, for example, it is a companion role , sometimes it is an assistance role and many times it is protection role. Your dog may be the perfect candidate for a role as head of security.
