My bells and whistle giant Schnauzer is resting calmly on his bed. I love the go to bed command. He has only been with me for 6 weeks and we have gone through airport security, flown first class, driven over 600 miles in one day and been to my grandchildren’s parties. His sense of smell and hearing is amazing. We were filling up at a shady gas station because I forgot to watch the tank. It was 10pm, no lights and I would have been scared. However my friend flipped around with a ferocious bark when a man approached me. I didn’t see or hear the guy. The stranger turned around and quickly left us alone. Worth every penny!

This is the video that so many have been waiting for. You explain the reasoning for the different prices - not everyone understands supply and demand - which is very good. I enjoy visiting your website and looking at the different dogs, dog breeds, and specialties - companion, protector, etc. Thank you for this video, I will go back and rewatch it for parts that I missed or didn't understand. Again, thank you so much for this and the wonderful dogs you train and provide.

Very good explanation. You forgot to mention costs for competition, titling, and even the independent certification that all your dogs receive that proves they are certified working dogs. Even getting a basic CGC A/U costs money. 99% of trainers don't bother with independent certification like this. If you wanted to buy a dog, take it to a club and train it yourself, you could do it for less money, but it would be FAR from free, and you are limited by your skill level, limited time, and limited social experiences to your immediate surroundings. PDS takes these dogs to many places that my dogs have never been exposed to. If you need protection NOW you don't want to wait 3 or 4 years to grow yourself and your dog to this bare minimum level.

Great point! Military , cop dog. Take orders! Do it and don’t question. No thought, no thinking, tools, soldiers, equipment. A PP dog has to live a lifestyle, think and be ready, not get ready to go out and do a job. He’s always on the job.

Is there any video that u have that can "train the trainer"? I always want to improve my skills, but sometimes it's really difficult when there is no one there to tell u if you are doing exactly right, if you're missing the smallest nuance, that makes all the difference. Sometimes I feel like I'm struggling and it bothers me terribly!! I take my work very seriously and I have great pride in the dogs I train, but, I ALWAYS want to up my game, but nobody willing or able to help me. Or, they want thousands of dollars to do it. I'm a simple family dog trainer, I don't make that kind of money. I live in NYC and not near any decent kennel or trainer.

Health reasons. No one wants to invest hundreds of hours on a puppy that may or may not be healthy as an adult. With the breeds I am developing I have full control over their genetics. I have tested and retested my breeding stock over three decades. I have video of three of my top sires at ten years of age. Breeders of these other breeds rarely test and rarely have any knowledge of health, longevity or temperment issues related to their breeding programs.

I have thousands of videos and have covered that subject many times. My website does as well. All of our dogs over one year of age have been fully health tested. It is kind of a given. What about us???? Do you think WE would spend two years or more developing a dog without being concerned about it's health and longevity to do the work? I think WE care more than anyone. Our video on Genetics Matters is very telling on this subject. No other company in this industry does more to educate the consumer.
