THE TRUSTED NAME IN PROTECTION DOG TRAINING...


About our team.....


World Class Canine's protection dog training program is second to none.  Our protection dog training program was designed with one goal in mind; to provide the private sector with same quality of protection training found in the elite patrol dog community.  Our program was created by some of the most influential trainers in the working dog world starting with our National Director James Allen Parker.  Along with his duties at World Class Canine, James is the bite-work columnist for K-9 Cop Magazine (2010-present) and is regarded as a top subject matter expert in the field of bite-work and protection dog training.  Along with training countless personal protection dogs for clients from all walks of life, James has instructed police, federal, military and Special Forces units around the world.  James started his career training civilian personal protection dogs and has always made elite protection training accessible to anyone in need of our services since our companies inception.  Martin Wesley (World Class Canine Kentucky) currently serves as a state police SWAT K-9 handler/trainer, along with his duties as a World Class Canine Master Trainer.  Master Trainer Stefan Nazdam (World Class Canine Charlotte) brings over twenty years of experience to World Class Canine, gained from training countless working dogs here and in his native Czechoslovakia.  Head of Texas operations Sean Lulofs brings unparallelled experience from his days in the military working dog program, where he was promoted to the Military Working Dog program manager for the U.S. Air Force, overseeing the entire Air Force K9 program.  John L. Lockett (World Class Canine Florida) has been training protection dogs professionally for over 20 years and is highly regarded in our industry.

What the competition doesn't want you to know!
              

At World Class Canine we have always allowed our programs excellence to speak for itself.  We don't believe in downing the competition to further our business, however, due an alarming number of recent horror stories in our industry, we feel compelled to educate the public on certain things to watch out or beware of, when shopping around to have your dog protection trained.  Beware of the following warning signs, as they are signs of a business that is either incompetent, or one that is running a scam.

1) Kennels, trainers, or businesses that don't require an evaluation prior to agreeing to a training contract.  It is important for you to remember that not every dog is capable of performing protection work, due to varying genetics inside the dog world.  At World Class Canine, we along with other legitimate business's require an evaluation prior to promising you results to not only insure that your dog is capable of performing the package you purchase, but also to insure that your dog possesses the proper nerves, drives, stability and clarity to safely and effectively perform as a protection dog.  Kennels that do not require an evaluation on dogs unknown to the trainer are simply running a scam and are only interested in taking your hard earned money, regardless of the product they turn out. 

2) Kennels, trainers, or businesses that do not have an age requirement for protection training contracts.  To properly train a K9 in true protection the candidate must be a minimum of 14-18 months of age.  That is not to say that introductory prey driven (fun, play-like) bite-work cannot start at a very early age, however, real protection training requires intense pressure and a true threat from the agitator.  If true bite-work is done at to young an age it will forever hinder the dogs capabilities and will create fear in the dog, which is not desirable in a true protection dog.   If a trainer tells you that can train your dog to be a true protection dog when they are a puppy, run! They will either produce a dog that only plays a game of bite-sleeve tug-o-war, or they will create a junk yard dog that is more bark than bite.  Dogs exposed to pressure to early, operating out of fear are a liability to you and your family because they are in a sense fighting for their lives and they will perform bite-work in a state of panic, nearing the fight, flight or freeze response.  Don't allow a trainers greed to forever ruin your dogs temperament by starting too soon. 

What to expect from a World Class Canine trained protection dog?


Protection dog training takes years master, which is why we ask that you take careful consideration in choosing a trainer.  Protection training is a delicate process and if done properly will not adversely affect the temperament of your dog.  Proper protection training will give your dog a purpose and bring him closer to you, his family.  Proper protection dog training will also develop internal confidence in your dog, not fear.  At World Class Canine, we teach each student to react under certain situations, or by command.  By properly training each dog, we retain their loving and social temperaments, but produce man stopping results, in the unfortunate case that they are needed.

Addressing the sad state of affairs and low point of reference in the protection/guard dog training business.

The truth is that the vast majority of so-called protection dog trainers/kennels in our industry are fraudulently selling and training dogs for sport and passing them off as personal protection dogs, to clients that don't know the difference.  If you are not familiar with the concept of a sport dog, a sport dog is trained to believe that bite-work is a game and focuses on visible equipment, such as a bite sleeve.  At World Class Canine we utilize proven training techniques that will teach your dog to engage the true threat under a wide variety of scenarios, to ensure the safety of you and your family.

Personal Protection Evaluation:

Just like humans, not every dog is made to defend themselves, or others.  A man stopping protection dog (the real deal) must possess the proper genetic and physical traits, as well as inherent confidence.  Typically people mistake the average junk yard dog for an actual protection dog.  Just because a dog barks doesn't mean they want to bite.


Imagine the bully in high school that always threatened others but said he was only joking, if someone stood up to him.  To the untrained eye many weak
and fearful dogs seem like tough man stoppers because they behave so aggressively for no reason.  Believe me that is not a desirable quality.  Dogs that behave that way generally are only saying "please leave me alone" and are trying to scare people off to avoid conflict.  Occasionally however, there are exceptions to this rule.  A true personal protection dog is stable, well mannered and social in non-threatening situations.


This evaluation is required to asses whether or not your dog is suitable for protection work.  If your dog is not suitable, we can supply one that is.  Training fear driven, nervous dogs for personal protection is an accident waiting to happen and we will not put innocent people in jeopardy.

Personal Protection Evaluation $150.00

Note:  If the evaluation is done off site additional fees to include travel time and expenses will be added.
