I run a business, my gsd protection dog has been very helpful. I travel a lot into some bad city’s and places. If you need a bodyguard, I choose a GSD over a person every day.

[@ShyDog827]

I’ve been working with my pup since he was 10 months old because at the time , it seemed he was suffering from fear aggression . As a pup he would charge everyone with a menacing growl. Very stressful . He wanted Blood of every trainer I took him to. He would Not submit. I was even afraid to take him back from the trainers after watching his ferocity. But he Never unleashed this anger towards me. Always loving. He will be 4 next March and we are understanding each other so much much better now. But as I raise him , I’m learning he is a natural guard dog . Just today on our walk, a man came behind me from nowhere , and my boy tackled him and stood guard over him. He will block others dogs when they approach me at dog parks also. That’s why I’m here today; to learn how to work with my dogs natural instincts and not against them.

[@kellyehammers6613]

I just purchased recently another pup to train for protection work from Czech Republic. He is now 8 weeks old. Besides researching the line and the breeder where you decide to purchase your pup at , at such a young age look for the pup that wants to engage with you ie; tug of war, playing chase and is active and confident ie; you know in all litters you have the pup that's scared of everything, isn't confident, won't break away from the litter. Then there's the one that's considered the bully. Gets into everything likes to break away and explore, isn't scared of anything, always breaking the rules. That's the pup you want for protection. It's not a guarantee but at that age those are just a couple of signs to look for. Expect to spend hundred hours in training with your dog and a minimum of $5000.00 it's about average for having your own dog trained in bite work. That is of course if he has the personality and temperament for it. Most places will run a few tests by your dog to see his drive and potential for this type of work. Beware of those places that say they can turn any dog into a protection dog and want your money without even looking at your dog. Just like not everyone has the temperament to be a police officer, not every dog has the traits required for bite work.

[@ItsMeNanaD71]

Let’s be honest. Simply the presence of a German shepherd is likely enough protection. I just got my first German shepherd today, a beautiful 13 week old girl, whom I got because they are a good deterrent. I didn’t get her to turn her into a protector but we are bonding & building loyalty. Hopefully she’s a natural protector but even if she’s not I’m quite positive her presence will be a good deterrent.

[@anaisabelosoy]

Can you explain?? Before I make a mistake in getting one.

[@Brianbrandfas]

@@anaisabelosoy It's about realistic expectations and knowing what you want from the dog. Protection dogs are working dogs. They're not pets. Working dogs present all sorts of challenges for owners from keeping them busy and engaged to maintaining their skills. You should have a long conversation with your breeder and whoever is going to train the dog for you so that you go into it with eyes wide open. In my experience, people with working dogs really just wanted a pet and did not know what they were getting into. Movies love to show a gentle, family dog that turns on a dime into the house defender when the bad guy tries to break in. I don't believe dogs turn on and off like that and I've seen people get them and then want to rehome them because they were protecting all the time and no one, including friends, could even come near them (the person). Dogs, in general, are great deterrents even if not trained in protection. I've had many friends in law enforcement tell me that most criminals ignore houses with dogs because they don't even want to take the chance that the dog is mean. That's always been good enough for me as it allows my dogs to be pets most of the time and not employees. This is all just my opinion. I encourage you to talk to as many people as you can, especially protection dog trainers and people with them (true protection dogs that have been trained for protection, not your neighbor with a GSD who is convinced he would kill a mugger because he barks lol).

[@anaisabelosoy]

Brian Brandfas Thank you for the explanation 😊, I will definitely ask plenty of questions from the breeder.

Hi German shepherd man! Huge fan! Quick question, by any chance do you know from your litters a puppy that could possible be candidate for protection. Meaning, do you test your puppy’s for these types of drives yourself? My goal would be two train him/her to a level one or two protective dog nothing higher than that. I’m currently in Minneapolis for a job and I love your puppy’s and will be contacting you in the near future for one of you puppys when I move from my apt to a house.

I do test puppies and it is obvious when a "protection candidate" emerges. I only have one every 20 or so puppies, but it does happen. GSM

[@kevindavis9667]

GSM, do some portion of German Shepherds have a natural disposition to protect without having to go through the rigamarole of training? I have always assumed that these dogs are very protective by nature.

[@germanshepherdmanofficialc7598]

They are naturally protective, especially the German and Czech ancestry ones. GSM

[@Robbie28]

You hit the nail on the head. To me, you are not really teaching them to protect. That’s an instinct they should already posses. You are teaching them to release and also ya help them to build confidence in their own abilities. That’s why I love shepherds and rotties. Plus they are such good family members when you raise that boy/girl as a member of the family.

That was very insightful and I better understand the friendly comment from a Shutzhund IPO competitor that my rescue GSD girl may not live up to my expectations when I said I wanted to do beginner French Ring with her. She certainly has prey drive and intelligence but that ability to stand like steel in the face of a threat..maybe not so much. Hard to know if she was born that way, I’m her fourth home at only 18mos. GSDs with high prey drive require a lot of physical and mental exercise, do people understand this? That’s why they land in the da*n shelters. I adore my rescue but she needed a highly motivated owner/handler. People who don’t understand this get overwhelmed and eventually surrender them, it breaks my heart to see these wonderful but reactive GSD in the rescues.

Don't leave the dog outside alone constantly. They need mental and physical exercise daily. And a lot of it.

He’s right. I own a protection dog and these dogs are bred for this. And even then you can’t guarantee the dog will bite / fight. The must be social , demonstrate solid nerve , posses high prey drive and most of the time when these things are in place you can build the dog and get it to bite/ fight. This also doesn’t change the dog’s personality. It’s no diff than taking your child to learn jujitsu for example. You’re teaching the animal to spar with a human. Now some of the more intense bloodlines come out of the womb biting ( literally). Gotta know the right breeder and trainer.

That would be a long answer. A professional trainer familiar with the breed should be able to assess the dog quickly. GSM

[@nexfierce4924]

I got a black gsd & i believe he will defend me against another dog but im not sure on a person. How do i know for sure without putting myself at risk he ignores most other ppl. He gets upset if another dog barks at me h barks bk aggressive.

[@germanshepherdmanofficialc7598]

That would be a very long answer in my opinion. I usually talk with people over the phone about such things. Message me on our facebook page and we'll go from there. GSM

If I may add to this: In the US the term “protection dog” can mean many things to many different people; and that is not good at all. The word “personal” has been chopped off; that is not good either. Personal Protection Dog (PPD) is the correct term. That being said, a successful and optimally trainer PPD has been conditioned/exposed to and can handle tremendous amounts of what’s known as social pressure: little kids loving and tugging on him, cats, other dogs, chickens, adults of all ages, birds, bicycles, cars, trips to Home Depot, gunfire, flying on a plane, etc. PPD’s are not K9/Military Working Dogs. PPD’s are not perimeter dogs used as deterrents. PPD’s are not Schutzhund (actually IGP now) dogs although they can crossover in that arena. PPD’s are not high drive working GSD’s/Mal’s/Dutchies that will bite a sleeve when they hear “Packen!” PPD’s are highly trained, highly sociallized (to a diversity of stimuli and adverse conditions), and highly obedient... almost to the point of a titled dog in the obedient part of IGP. Anything less is not a true PPD and can and will be a liability when exposed so to speak. Examples of who is excelling in the PPD field in the US: Protection Dog Sales in Kentucky, Gold Coast K9 in CA, Kraftwerk K9 in WA, and Vomberkhaus K9 in MT. There are more out there but that’s who I know.

German Shepherd Man Official Channel Your Black GSD’s are incredible lookers. I’d venture to say best in the US based on temperament, pedigree, health checks, etc. Now if we could just get the FSU Seminoles to look as good on the field as your GSD’s ha ha.

[@alcyr5655]

This is an eye opener, and well thought out video. Yes I want Nayla to be protective, but also not put herself in harms way. 14 month old female rescue dog, I keep threatening to bring back to a shelter. I don't want an aggressive dog, but last 5 months we kind of hit a balance, but she is still a bitch towards other dogs. I don't understand why a GSD is so aggressive on a leash, and submissive off. We all have our quirks, and she has lots. P.S. I could never let her go to a shelter, no matter how much she pushes my buttons

He’s telling the basics a video won’t be enough to train for protection. Plus he’s letting you know what to look to know if your dog has the capability for it.

I think my gsd's look and bark is enough to have bad guys running...

[@mkshffr4936]

When we get our dog we want her to primarily a pet but would like her to warn us of intruder or danger and be willing to join in the defense if necessary but not looking for a professional protection dog.

[@KMS5280]

there’s no way I have the time or money to turn my GSD into a protector. However, simply looking the role goes a LONG way in public. I walk mine with a Julius k9 harness and he looks the part so well I’m afraid he may get in trouble for impersonating a K9. My point is - most, not ALL, but most who would even consider doing me harm will immediately reject me as a candidate because of the deterrent that his presence brings. They don’t need to know that he’d likely hide tail and run off if truly challenged - and that’s just fine with me.

[@germanshepherdmanofficialc7598]

Well said KMS5280...GSM

Every dog I've ever had has been a protection dog with no training. Treat them well and the protection is automatic; some breeds stronger than others.
