Personal Protection Programs
Before the dog can be booked in for protection training the dog must be able to do basic obedience and pass a full evaluation to ensure the dog is stable and suitable for training. MNK9 do not use obsolete arm pads for training law enforcement dogs. All dogs trained in bite work are trained on a full body bite suit, concealed {hidden} arms and Basket {riot} muzzle.
Evaluation & Private lesson One hour
The trainer will go through several tests with your dog to get a profile on the potential of your dog in training. After the evaluation the dog will go through a private lesson to develop his confidence. On completion you will be advised on how to develop the dog at home or you may leave the dog at MNK9 for the foundation training.
Foundation Program 7 day
The foundation Program is an extension of the evaluation, the dog will be exposed to a professional decoy to raise his suspicion level and confidence. The dog will be agitated from a distance and from behind a fence with experienced dogs in other kennels. As the dogs drive and confidence increases he will then be worked on lead with a handler to develop further. The confidence and strong suspicion level developed is essential for future training. You will see a demonstration at the end of the Program and have the option for the dog to stay and start the next stage or develop him at home.
