Your videos are really good. Your are showing realistic point of view on this job. I really like it. Good job mate. I am looking forward to training my dog and doing this job.
This is very useful as i am about to make a move on training my dog who is a Doberman X GSD. Is the bite work a part of the training and is this included in practical test?
Hey. Good to hear you are training up your dog. For protection dogs, yes it is part of the training and is in the exam to pass as a team. The practical exam from memory is; Protection bite & release, patrol, obedience, article search & dog agility. Hope that helps 👍🏻
There are 4, what they call ‘recognised protection breeds’. These 4 are - • German Shepherds • Malinois • Rottweilers • Dobermans I would say from training that German Shepherds are the favourite breed, with Malinois & Rottweilers splitting the other 40%. I am yet to see a Doberman and not heard of anyone talk about someone having one.
I think it is all personal to you. I just can’t tell you what they are like, because I have never seen a trained one in person. I would be interested to see this tho.
@@MichaelWakleySmith I like to be different. I also love dobeys. I'm currently waiting to move into a bigger property before getting another pup. I have a mastiff x who I rescued and don't currently have room for another lol
Yep that was grate buddy trying to do my study on dog handle be for i do my NASDU as worried i might fail my test and I am guessing it is hart to pronounce my name been Persian lol so I am all so know as Ricco as half Spanish to born in Leeds though lol
@@MichaelWakleySmith Thank you my boss / teacher that trained me for my SIA licence really wants me to be a dog handler and said i his willing to pay for my nasdu test and to day want to take me to Total K9 in York to see what i think about the dogs the down side is i am broke as it is trying to my of the house my mum left me but it is some thing i have wanted to do for a long time then i meat Adam my boss / teacher and he is trying so hart to make this happen but there is only so much he can do any way sorry to bother you and keeping you up unless you are at work which is more the case lol there is other things i would ask but not shore if it would be appropriate. if i do not reply might have fallen asleep as got to be up in morning for York so night night mate :)
also wanted to consider getting a rescue G.S dog as you mentioned give it a better life but it seems to me they make it so hard to adopt dog and all their rules and regulations so might be better off just buying a dog :(
Ahh that sucks. I mean, I imagine they wouldn’t give you a soft dog if you say your are a securoty dog handler, but not all rescues are cute and cuddly. It is a nice thought, but like you say it may be easier to buy the first dog and see how things go
My GSD is a reacue dog he’s got the best of both worlds to be good with my kids and partner at home and then aware & vocal at work. My malinois is from police ( failed for tracking unfortunately) but shes also best of both worlds

Are only certain breeds aloud to do security work? I ask, as normally you only see malinois and shepherds.

Dobeys are nice looking dogs. My mate from school had 2 as pets when we was growing up and I use to walk them during the day when I was unemployed.

Do you want me to start asking some NASDU questions on my videos? I can do them instead of the SIA ones for a while.
@@MichaelWakleySmith please buddy :)
No worries. My video for next weekend is already done, so after that I will ask some NASDU questions 👍🏻

Cheers for commenting. I was beginning to think that I have put this out there, but rescue dogs aren’t homed with security dog handlers.
@@MichaelWakleySmith no they definitely are.
@@MrTrix92 I looked in to police ones but i am in west / south Yorkshire and cant seem to find a web site to adopt one x
Upload a video of how to teach a dog to bark when a dog searches for the blind and the dog stops looking for the blind 🙏
Hey Pravin. What do you mean by searches for the blind?
