🐾 Step-by-Step: Your Delivery Journey Begins!

1. 📞 Initial Consultation: Let’s Talk!

This is your first step! Our team at https://protectiondogss.com/ sets up a chat with you and your family. We ask questions like:

• Who’s in your home? (Kids? Elderly?)
• What are your goals? (Family safety? Travel companion?)
• Do you have other pets?
• What’s your home like? (Apartment? Farm?)

👉 We offer Consultation Services to guide you personally!

🕒 Time Needed: 1–3 days

2. 🐶 Matching the Perfect Dog for You

We’re not about selling “any dog.” We believe in perfect matches! ❤️ Whether it’s a German Shepherd or a Cane Corso, we look at:

• Energy level
• Breed compatibility
• Your schedule
• Training requirements

You might be choosing from:

• Pre-trained dogs (fastest delivery!)
• Partially trained young adults
• Puppies with custom growth plans

🕒 Time Needed: 2–7 days (but can be immediate if you choose from Dogs for Sale page)

3. 🏫 Training or Evaluation Phase

Not every dog is “ready-to-go.” Some may need extra prep based on:

• Protection level (family, personal, executive, estate)
• Obedience polishing
• Public control
• Child or pet desensitization
• Home Invasion Drills or Airport Behavior Training

We offer:

• Protection Dog Training
• Stay and Train
• Personalized Puppy Programs

🐾 Dogs already trained might need just a Training Refresh

🕒 Time Needed:

• Pre-trained dog: 2–4 weeks (for evaluation or refresh)
• Young adults or partials: 4–8 weeks
• Custom puppies: 6–12 weeks or more depending on goals

4. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Handler Training: Learn to Work as a Team

You don’t just get a trained dog — YOU become part of the team! We teach you:

• Command structure
• Body language signals
• Leash and off-leash techniques
• Emergency and threat responses
• Kid-safe handling (if needed)

Training is hands-on, fun, and empowering 💪 We offer:

• On-site at our facility
• Virtual instruction with video follow-ups
• At-home sessions through Family Handler Training

🕒 Time Needed: 1–2 days

5. 🏠 In-Home Integration (Optional but Amazing!)

We come to you (yes — YOUR home!) and:

• Show how the dog will function in your living space
• Set up crates, gear, sleeping spots
• Teach routines, feeding, and safety
• Introduce to kids, babies, or other pets (see Introducing to Family Pets)

This step makes delivery smooth and stress-free 🌟

🕒 Time Needed: 1–7 days

6. ✈️ Dog Delivery or Pickup

Almost there! 🎉 You can:

• Fly to us and pick up the dog (we help with travel)
• Have us hand-deliver the dog
• Use our K9 Transportation service

We also offer VIP Travel Support for celebrity and executive buyers 💼🛬

🕒 Time Needed: 1–3 days depending on location

🛎️ Add-On Services That Affect the Timeline

Depending on your needs, we can add:

• Veterinary Coordination (shots, health clearance, spay/neuter)
• Dog Insurance Assistance
• Custom Breeding (adds 6–12 months)
• Security Assessment for estate planning
• Dog Selection Evaluation for dogs you found elsewhere

Each service can add a few days to a few weeks — but always worth it for peace of mind 💼🐾

🚦 Fastest Timeline vs. Longest Timeline

Scenario	Estimated Total Time
Pre-trained dog, no extras	2–3 weeks
Young dog + refresh training	4–6 weeks
Custom puppy from scratch	3–6 months (minimum)
Dog + full services & add-ons	2–4 months

So if you need a dog fast — we can help! But if you want a custom companion, the wait is 💯 worth it.

🧠 Why the Wait is GOOD (and Safer!)

🚫 A rushed delivery = unsafe delivery.

We’ve seen dogs arrive at new homes:

• Scared 😨
• Confused 😕
• Disobedient 😬

That’s why we never skip steps. Every extra week means:

• Better bonding 🧡
• Stronger obedience
• Safer behavior with kids
• Smooth travel or public presence

Think of it like preparing a superhero — not just a pet! 🦸‍♂️🐶

📝 Real Client Example: “From Consultation to Couch”

The Johnson Family in Florida needed a family-friendly dog trained to guard but also gentle around a toddler.

✅ Week 1: Consultation and match made
✅ Week 2–6: Refresh training + socialization
✅ Week 7: Family flew out for Handler Training
✅ Week 8: In-home integration complete

⏱️ Total Time: 8 weeks

They now have a Belgian Malinois who guards, plays, and cuddles every day 💙
