Training That Fits a VIP Life
Your life is fast. Your dog must flow with it. Our training builds four pillars: manners, obedience, protection, and lifestyle. We make the dog easy to live with and strong when it counts.
What We Teach
- Manners: Door waiting, car entry, polite with staff, tidy on walks, quiet in hotels.
- Obedience: Heel, sit, down, stay, place, recall. Hand signals for silent use.
- Protection: Alert on command, stance, bark on cue, guard position, escort, controlled bite, release, return, house watch, vehicle watch.
- Lifestyle: Elevators, airports, helipads, boats, golf carts, school runs, events, and calm behavior under cameras and bright lights.
Socialization Timeline
| Age Window | Focus | Outcome |
|---|---|---|
| 8 to 16 weeks | Sound, surfaces, gentle handling, crate | Calm pup that trusts people and places |
| 4 to 8 months | Obedience base, neutrality to strangers | Dog ignores crowds, listens well |
| 8 to 14 months | Drive shaping, protection intro | Dog learns control before power |
| 14 to 24 months | Advanced protection, travel skills | Estate ready, executive ready, family safe |
Safety First, Always
A protection dog must be safe first. We build clear rules. The dog learns a green state for normal life, a yellow state for alert, and a red state for action. You hold the keys. The dog waits for your cues unless a serious threat appears.
- Green: Family mode. Relaxed. Ignores normal noise and people.
- Yellow: Watch and warn. Body blocks. Stays close.
- Red: Protect on command or true threat. Quick stop when recalled.
We teach calm handling, clear words, and simple hand signals. We avoid complex patterns. Simple is safe.
Estate Integration
We help your dog blend into your property. We map entries, gates, safe rooms, staff zones, and guest paths. We plan where the dog rests, where the dog works, and when the dog is off duty. We add rules for pools, gyms, garages, and guest houses. The result is smooth flow without stress.
Estate Readiness Matrix
| Area | Setup | Dog Task |
|---|---|---|
| Main entry | Place board, camera view | Quiet greet, observe without lunging |
| Private wing | Restricted access | Shadow handler, block approach |
| Nursery or kids’ rooms | Soft rugs, baby gate | Calm settle, ignore toys and cries |
| Pool area | Gates and shade | On place until released |
| Gym | Tether point, water bowl | Rest while you train |
| Garage and vehicles | Safe loading spot | In and out on cue, vehicle watch |
Travel Ready
Your world moves. Your dog moves with you. We prepare for cars, SUVs, jets, yachts, and villas. We teach crate comfort and silent waits. We train for quick load and unload so you make meetings and school runs on time.

Protection Skills Explained
A well trained dog stops trouble before it starts. Here are core skills we teach and why they matter.
- Alert on cue: Dog shows presence with posture and bark. This deters most issues fast.
- Body block: Dog steps between you and a stranger. This is polite but clear.
- Escorting: Dog guides a person out while you keep distance.
- House watch: Dog patrols at night or holds a set point.
- Vehicle guard: Dog protects the car when you are loading or inside.
- Targeted hold: In true danger, the dog can bite and hold. This is controlled and safe because we teach a clean release on command.
- Recall under stress: Dog stops action and returns right away. This is the heart of safe protection.
Scenario Fit Table
| Scenario | Primary Skill | Backup Skill |
|---|---|---|
| Gate crash or intrusion | Alert, body block | House watch to fixed point |
| Parking lot or garage | Vehicle guard, escort | Recall to heel and load |
| Crowd approach | Neutrality, body block | Silent heel to exit |
| Home alone with staff | Neutrality | Place until handler returns |
| Night noise outside | Alert, house watch | Handler checks cameras |
Family and Child Safety
We teach dogs to be gentle with kids. We teach kids simple rules too: ask before hugging, no tug on ears, and no food teasing. Dogs learn to respect baby gear and toddler speed. We make a safe plan for play and rest times.
Family Safety Table
| Rule | Dog Action | Child Action |
|---|---|---|
| Food time | Dog eats in quiet spot | Child leaves dog alone |
| Doorbell | Dog goes to place | Child waits for parent |
| Play time | Tug on cue only | Use toy, not hands |
| Rest time | Dog crate or bed | Child plays in own area |
Neutrality With Staff and Guests
Your dog must be friendly but not needy. We teach the dog to ignore house staff while still listening to you. We also teach a polite greet for guests. The dog can meet or not meet based on your signal. Your home stays relaxed.
Discretion and Privacy
We never share your name, photos, or address. We avoid public posts about your dog. We use quiet travel and private handovers. Your dog is a tool for safety. Tools do not need press. Your peace matters more.
