FAQs — Sawbridgeworth

How long does it take to deliver a protection dog to Sawbridgeworth?

Delivery to Sawbridgeworth depends on the dog — most placements happen within 8–16 weeks from selection. We don't rush the timeline to hit a slot. Every placement includes a full handover session at your home in Sawbridgeworth so you're confident with the commands and the dog is confident in your environment.

Do you cover Sawbridgeworth?

Yes — Sawbridgeworth sits inside our regular working area across Hertfordshire. We're on A1184 and M11 J7 regularly, which puts Sawbridgeworth well inside a straightforward drive from us. Working area around Sawbridgeworth includes bishops stortford, harlow, old harlow and out from there.

Can a protection dog live as a normal family dog in East Herts?

Absolutely. Our protection dogs live in the house, sleep in the utility, get walked around River Stort Navigation, and are switched off unless commanded. That's the whole point. A properly trained dog has an on/off switch. Off is the default. On is a command from you.

Do you work with rescue dogs?

Regularly. A rescue with baggage is often exactly the sort of dog that benefits most from a proper structured programme. Straightforward: assessment, plan, structured work, handover. No mystique.

Are your protection dogs safe around children in Sawbridgeworth homes?

Every one of our protection dogs is temperament-tested around children, visitors and other dogs before it ever leaves us. In East Herts we've placed dogs into homes with toddlers, teenagers and everything in between. 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.
