Through the training  process we learn so much about our dog's personality, drive, temperament, nerves, and even limitations.  We put a lot of emphasis on obedience in our training program because we believe it is the foundation of a good  relationship between handler and canine.

German Shepherds have a natural instinct to protect, and because we want our dogs to be good citizens in our home and in public, we believe that socialization is as equally as important as obedience in producing a well-rounded working canine or family pet.

Another aspect of our training program involves environmentals.  We introduce our dogs to a variety of different environments, noises, and situations.  We will purposefully create, in a controlled environment, high-stress situations in order to build confidence in our dogs so that they remain calm when unexpected events occur.
