A dog trained in Schutzhund is usually an excellent companion in the home. The dog has confidence and trust in himself, allowing him to be at peace with his surroundings. He is approachable, quietly standing his ground, calm but eager and alert when the situation warrants, and he is fearless, but also good with children.
In addition, a dog that performs well in Schutzhund work is a very good candidate for police work. A minimal amount of additional training makes very well-trained Schutzhund dogs ready for active police duty. |
