Protection dog training, explained for buyers

Good manners: sits, downs and walks politely.
Real-world obedience: holds steady around crowds and traffic.
Protection foundations: introduced by a professional.
Advanced work: something you witness, not just hear described.

You are not learning to train a dog here. You are learning to judge what a seller says.

Control is the headline

A reliable recall and a clean release come before anything else. A dog that will not let go of attention when told to is not ready.

Ask for a demonstration, a written description and a reference you can call. Certificates are useful but never the whole story.

Behavior can never be fully guaranteed. Trust sellers who talk about risks as openly as they talk about strengths.
