I have children, are protection dogs safe around children?"All of our dogs are carefully selected to meet your needs and requirement. We ensure we are fully aware of each dogs temperament, as many of them go to live with families with young children. In order to keep you and your family safe and feeling confident with your new dog, we would NEVER place a dog that will be around children that does not have the temperament to suit. We would ONLY suggest selected dogs that we know would fit this criteria.

How does a personal protection dog know when it has to protect me?All of our dogs are trained to recognise threatening behaviour in real life situations. They are trained to deal with that threat and once the threat is dealt with, to go back to being a lovable, family pet. All of our dogs are trained to be able to switch off and on. Through the intensive training that our dogs receive over an extended time period they are taught to pick up on not just behaviour and situations that may be associated with a potential threat but are also incredibly tuned in to their handler's body language. They will either show aggression on command or will work without command when a threat is both serious and immediate.

Do I need to continue with training after I have brought my dog home?Prior to taking a dog home, we require your assistance in the handover. This enables you to bond with the dog and feel confident and comfortable with managing and caring for your dog. You would also work alongside the trainer, learning the commands the dog has been taught in training to enable you to feel happy and confident with your new protection dog. The handover is normally carried out at our facilities; however, for an additional fee it can take place at your home, whether in the UK or overseas.
