hi i am looking for a protection dog for my landlord she really wants a german shepherd for herself she walks alot and is scared of all the stuff that is going on now
Dan is right about finding a reputable GSD breeder. You can refer to our Doggone Helpful page of our website for tips on selecting a breeder. As far as the training is concerned, there is a trainer in Columbus by the name of Chad Byerly at Posidog who does protection training using positive reinforcement methods: https://www.posidog.org/control-intensity/

They do dog training for obedience mostly. They don't breed dogs or train for protection. You need to find a reputable German Shepherd breeder and find out about police training for dogs. The training you're referring to is about $5,000.00

We are doing Chill training for a very reactive dog. I love that they don't just tell you what to do but explain the process and the reason for doing things a certain way. Much better than just commands.

I spent weeks researching and trying to decide on a training center and found Cold Nose Companions through our vet. They've been fantastic with my dog and he loves going to classes! He finishes his second set of classes tomorrow, and has already started his third set. I've had classes with all three trainers and they've all been great! We will definitely continue doing classes with them, it's been extremely helpful. It's also great how close they are to where we live.
Just finished our third class out of 6. Overall a good experience. However, I would recommend if your dog has a specific issue to work on, schedule a private class. Group classes don't have the time to work specifically with one dog individually on one specific issue. My dog has an issue with motorcycles which can't be addressed in the group class.
This is the 2nd dog that I've trained with Cold Nose Companions and I can't say enough good things about them. Christine was the most recent instructor I've worked with and she was absolutely amazing, they all are. I've worked with them both individually and in group classes. My first dog actually received his therapy dog status thru them. Highly recommend.
