How Protection Training For Dogs Works

Our protection dog training program is designed around the concept of building INTENT. In many other programs, intent is almost an afterthought, with more emphasis being placed on the technical gripping behaviour and how the dog engages with the bite equipment.

In the system we use at SHIELD K9, our goal in the foundation is the same whether we are training a sport, police, or personal protection dog. We want dogs to have real intent in their work rather than just playing a fun game of tug with equipment.

Once the foundation is in place, we begin to focus more on the technicalities related to individual disciplines, but you will be pleasantly surprised to find out these are not difficult to accomplish when you have a rock-solid foundation where the dog learns INTENT. Real protection training is not about wearing cool suits or looking slick, catching fast dogs.

THIS TYPE OF TRAINING IS NOT FOR EVERY DOG. We will only work with dogs that have the ability to excel in this work and truly want to do the work. Please contact us to find out if your dog is suitable for protection dog training!
