The training of our security working dogs is conducted by the training & development team and commences at eight weeks of age. We select puppies from excellent working bloodlines and conduct playful exercises that develop the dog’s natural working abilities. These exercises strengthen the dog’s desire to chase and hunt which later leads into tracking and searching. By the time a pup reaches six months of age, they are able to demonstrate off lead obedience, track and search in an open area or building and have a grasp of the foundation exercises of handler protection.
