I have worked for K9protector for over six years. My main duties are home testing fully trained adult dogs. The selecting of dogs to enter our breeding program. The whelping of the puppies and raising them into adulthood to become family protection dogs. It's so satisfying to take a puppy from birth to adulthood. Along this journey they become confident individuals through our structured program of obedience, environmental training and protection training.
Every day is different for me and it's a wonderful experience being able to develop and work so many different dogs and knowing their individual personalities.
It makes me very proud when protection dogs leave us to their new homes and the new owners comment how lovely they are and how well they adjust to their new situations.
Prior to coming on board I had sixteen years experience in the private sector developing and training large breed working dogs.
