Protection Dogs in Hampstead
Homes in Hampstead sit at the higher end of the market — Heath-frontage mansions with walkable neighbourhoods.
Who we work with in Hampstead
Hampstead is predominantly residential (75%), with meaningful commercial activity (20%), with dense urban stretches (5%). That shapes how we work here — protection dogs placed with families, plus a smaller volume of security work for businesses on the fringes.
Why protection work suits Hampstead
That's exactly the profile our protection dogs are built for: switched-on around the property, absolutely safe with kids, and reliable when they need to be.
Heath-frontage mansions, narrow conservation lanes — that's the profile we build the work around. Around Hampstead we see a mix of Georgian townhouses and Heath-side mansions, and the training reflects that.
