Protection dogs

In training guard dogs for a living, I often met with dog owners who want to form the protection of their dogs. In most cases the dogs are able to select the cases made ​​of a few very basic labor protection, but in vast majority of their dogs are simply not capable. There are only a handful of dog breeds, training, Excel security.

The following is a list of breeds that are often trained to use personalSecurity. The list is not exhaustive, but includes the following:
- German Shepherd
- Malinois
- Rottweiler
- Doberman
- American Bulldog
- Giant Schnauzer
- Bouvier de Flandres
- Boxer
- Airedale Terrier
- Presa Canario

There are many other breeds that can be done in this area, but not many. For many of my clients, this is a difficult thing to understand. Why does not your dog, because of their race?Your dog is intelligent, active, barking at strangers that come near the house, etc. These are all things that a dog is suitable for protection as a trained, right?

The answer lies in what it takes to train a dog for protection. Yes, it has to do with intelligence. Yes, it has to do with athletic ability. But what is really happening on the drive.

Often stand guard dogs and have much higher average prey driveDefensive driving. Prey drive is' s desire to chase the dog and grab an object. And 'the unit to train the dog to bite and to record in his "prey", the villain. units of Defence is the desire for a dog to protect itself and its owner. While most dogs bark at strangers, some dogs have strong enough defense actually go where they want to do something, if the intention of harming anyone.

Except for extreme protection drives the dog musthave an incredibly strong nervous system to be able to handle the rigors of protection at work. nervous system is something that rarely happens by chance, at the level of top breeders from around the world to breed for the trait.

Those who work with dogs trained to protect would be good for the mind to seek a professional can accurately gauge the prey drive, defense drive, and the nervous system of their dog.
