Is a protection dog dangerous? What if I have a lot of friends that come over, do I always have to lock the dog up?
Dogs are not computers trained to know when you and your friends are horse playing, or when your children are play fighting in the front yard. Owning a dog trained to protect you is just as big of a responsibility as owning a hand gun both can be dangerous. Our personal Protections K9's have been socialized in many environments and around children so you will be able to lead a normal life with your dog. If you under stand the rules of living with a PP K9.

I already have a dog; can you train it for me?
Sorry, we only train dogs we sell. The reason for this is that we want to give our customers and their dogs the most time and attention we can. (this does not apply to obedience training)

Is it difficult for a trained adult dog to bond to a new family?
Dogs are pack animals so when they are removed from the family they know and are familiar with what they will need to fulfill their need to belong to a pack. It is a basic instinct, the higher the pack instinct the more the dog desires to bond. A highly developed pack instinct is dominant in performance bloodlines.

Why would a dog perform for a brand new owner?
Dogs are pack animals. When they are removed from their human pack they will look for a new one to belong to. When the dog transfers his loyalty to the new owners his trained behavior will also transfer.
