Personal Protection Dog Training

[Scythe13]

My only experience in dog training is on a film where they use a bunch of clothes on the clothesline and make it look like a person. They teach the dog to attack the person every time they say "Go get him". When the bad guy (I think he's a bully or something like that, in the story) comes into the kid's garden they tell the dog "Go get him" the dog starts going nuts and starts ripping clothes off the line!

So, given that experience, I'd recommend something different to that.

How come you didn't go for a German Shephard? Isn't that what the police generally use?
