Why Us?

World Class dogs come from World Class trainers. World Class trainers are not anointed. It’s not accomplished by pitching a sign or building a website. It’s measured by years of experience and backed by significant accomplishments in major training competitions. It takes an eye for talent. The ability to select dogs capable of intense training and preparation. Innovative training techniques. Consistency. Hard Work. There are no shortcuts.

In today’s world of instant information, it’s quite easy to “hang a sign,” or build a website. Accomplishments, successes, references and experience often take a back seat to slick ad campaigns and flashy websites. Adding a dog to your busy life is a long term investment. One we take seriously.

Over forty years of experience, backed by prestigious wins in international protection dog competitions, an impressive list of references and a talented training staff are all reasons you’ve landed in the right spot. You’ll see the difference.

Our Philosophy on protection dogs: Safe vs. Unsafe

We want to promote personal and family safety in a way that adds to the overall quality of life for each person choosing one of our fully trained dogs. Toward that end, we select, train and carefully transfer fully trained working German Shepherd Protection Dogs, trained to the highest international standards, to homes like yours. Originating from the world’s top working dog tournaments, further trained in real life scenarios, accustomed to family dynamics and family “chaos,” we promote and deliver the very best the world has to offer in Peace of Mind and Security; a Wayne Simanovich trained dog.
