Guard & Protect Training
At Got Canine Training, we believe protection training should be built on trust, control, and precision—never aggression or fear. Our Guard & Protect programs are designed for dogs with the right temperament, ensuring they respond to commands with discipline while maintaining a balanced, stable demeanor.
Whether you need a reliable family guardian, property protection, or advanced defense training, we tailor our methods to suit your dog’s abilities and your lifestyle. Using structured obedience, controlled scenarios, and positive reinforcement, we shape confident, obedient protectors—dogs that act only on command and remain calm in everyday life.

Frequently Asked Questions
For most general queries and questions, you would find the answer in these FAQs. For any query beyond this list, please contact us using the link below.
Do you offer group classes?
We offer private lessons only. This is based on our philosophy that dog obedience training is most successful when it is conducted in one-on-one sessions. This setting allows the trainer and the dog to focus their complete attention on the specific training needs of that dog.
What breeds of dogs do you train?
We have trained all breeds of dogs. You would be hard-pressed to find a breed that we have not trained – from Chihuahua to Great Dane, big or small, we train them all!
What training methods do you use?
I train dogs the way a mother wolf would train her pups in the wild, using love and respect instead of food as motivation.
Is my dog too old for training?
No, your dog can be trained at any age provided that you, the owner, are willing to learn too.
