Protection Dogs for Great Baddow — Calm at Home, Sharp on Command

Absolutely. Our protection dogs live in the house, sleep in the utility, get walked around Baddow Meads, and are switched off unless commanded. That's the whole point. Nerve, sociability and clarity in the bite are all screened before a dog is offered. If a dog doesn't pass, it doesn't go out — regardless of the postcode it's heading to.

We favour Malinois, working-line German Shepherds, Dutch Shepherds and — for family placements — sometimes Cane Corso and Rottweilers with the right temperament.
