Product Description

Product Description

"Training Dogs for Protection Work" is a comprehensive guide to the selection and training of dogs for protection work. The authors, who are professional trainers, have a profound understanding of both human and canine psychology. They stress the importance of correct attitude and commitment on the part of the owner/handler and explain the role in forming a working partnership between handler and dog. In clear, conversational tones they guide the reader through the choice of puppy and early training, then examine the three areas of obedience, protection and tracking which together produce the working protection dogs. This book pulls no punches in its condemnation of abusive techniques and also tackles popular training misconceptions. "Training Dogs for Protection Work" will prove invaluable to both amateur and professional handlers and to trainers of all working breeds as well as assisting every dog owner to understand more about the basics of correct handling and training.


About the Author

Fred Mandilk holds a Masters degree in sociology, with emphasis on behaviour and deviancy, from California State University, Los Angeles. He worked in law enforcement for four years and was a high school teacher for over ten years. Marv Ganglov started his dog training business over thirty years ago while an active police dog handler and he imports promising dogs from several countries in Europe. The two authors train German Shepherds and Mallnois for over 35 police departments as well as private citizens and they continue to train and retest the dogs several times a year. Each dog they train that finds a placement, be it police, military or private homes, is proficient in tracking, obedience and protection and some advanced dogs learn drug, arson and explosive searching work.
