At Harley and Sergio, our Level 1 protective canines are trained to issue a warning bark when commanded, making them ideal protectors for both individuals and families. These dogs possess a natural instinct to guard their territory, which we refine by teaching them to sound an alert upon detecting unfamiliar people. They are trained to position themselves protectively, either in front or beside their owner, effectively creating a barrier against potential threats. These protective canines can perform the alert command in a variety of scenarios, whether they are on a leash during a stroll, at the entrance to your home, in your car, or any other place you may be with your canine companion. They are also trained to respond to the bark command off-leash, within the perimeter of your home. Attempts to intimidate them, such as shouting, will not deter them. Although a Level 1 protective canine may resort to biting if physically confronted, they are not specifically trained for combat or to bite with unyielding intent, indicating a restraint in their aggressive response. The primary aim of our Level 1 protective canines is to act as a significant deterrent while integrating seamlessly into your family.
