K9 Police Dog Training
Obedience Training - Protection Training - Attack Training - Man Stopper Training
What is K9 Police Dog Training?
K9 dogs perform several important roles in police work. This work can include being on patrol, searching for and rescuing missing people, and attacking people who pose a threat.
Not all dogs are suitable for police work. These dogs must be able to operate in various situations and be trained to perform the required tasks. Potential K9 dogs must be intelligent, agile, and loyal. Canine police dog training trains these K9s for the work they need to do.
The Guard Dog Training Centre has an excellent international reputation for training dogs, and it has taken them to various places overseas, including France, Germany, and Belgium. The centre has experience training Schutzen 3, FBI and IPO dogs.
Police Dog Attack Training
Police dogs can be an effective way of disabling a person who is posing a threat to the police or other citizens. However, to perform this role, these dogs require a high level of training to perform a controlled attack when commanded. This enables the dog to perform this role safely.
We have the experience and knowledge of dogs at the Guard Dog Training Centre to perform police dog attack training. For more information on attack dog training.
Police Dog Bite Training
There are occasions when a police dog needs to bite in a controlled manner. Police dogs must be trained to do this during targeted attacks while maintaining control in high-stress situations. They need to be trained only to bite when it is appropriate.
Police Dog Obedience Training
Police dogs need to be obedient in any situation. This is particularly important given the dynamic environments a police dog can operate in, with lots going on. At the Guard Dog Training Centre, we know that obedience is a fundamental skill required by police K9s. Obedience enables the police handlers to command the dog to do what they need it to do quickly.
Our obedience training is based on reliable and humane methods at the Guard Dog Training Centre.
Police Dog Squad Training
Police dog training is different from many other dog training in that these K9s require special skills. K9 dogs do not operate in isolation; they work in coordinated teams with officers and sometimes with other dogs. Enabling them to do this requires specialised training to operate effectively as part of a squad. The K9 must know its role and be able to carry it out.
Our trainers at the Guard Dog Training Centre use their experience of knowing what is required of these dogs to train them to perform their role.
Police Dog Scent Training
Police dog sniffer training involves teaching K9s to sniff out dangerous or illegal substances such as explosives, narcotics, or weapons. The dogs must be trained not only to find these substances but also to ignore other scents when working. This enables them to focus on the substances that need to be detected. The imprinting method is a type of selective sniffer training that focuses on introducing the dog to a specific scent and rewarding it when it accurately identifies that scent
How Long Does it Take to Train a K9 Dog?
The time it takes for K9 police dog training will vary depending on several factors. The first of these is the role that the dog will perform. Some roles take longer to teach than others. Training can also vary depending on the dog's breed, age (younger is unusually better) and aptitude for training. Generally, training takes between 8 months to 2 years.
How Are K9 Dogs Trained?
K9 dogs are taken through different levels of training. All training starts with basic obedience. Teaching a dog advanced skills if they lack basic obedience is not effective. Once they have been trained in the skills needed to behave obediently and follow commands, they can then be trained on specific skills such as:
- Squad training
- Attack training
- Dog bite training
- Scent detection
- Search and rescue
Our K9 Dog Training Methodology
At the Guard Dog Training Centre, we specialise in a patient and firm K9 dog training methodology. Initially, this involves training the dog to know the difference between right and wrong and being able to follow commands. A K9 dog will then undergo further training to fulfil its role. We do not employ harsh training methods but focus on humane methods. This is achieved through the combination of love, determination, and reward.

FAQ
What age do police dogs start training?
Police dogs can start with obedience training at 4 months of age. They generally begin more specialised training at about one year of age. While we can train older dogs at the Guard Dog Training Centre, a dog should be trained when younger, particularly dogs in demanding roles like police dogs.
Why are police dogs trained in German?
Police dogs are trained in German in part because this is what has historically happened and also because it is quite effective.
Can any dog be trained as a police dog?
While any dog can technically be trained as a police dog, specific traits and temperaments are better suited to this work. Different breeds of dogs may also be suited to different types of police work. All potential K9 dogs must be intelligent, agile, and loyal. For this reason, some breeds, such as German Shepherds, Labradors, and Belgian Malinois, are commonly trained as police dogs.
How much does it cost to train a k9 dog?
The price to train a K9 dog depends on the breed, age, and type of training required. For further information, contact us via our website or call us on 1300 587 256.
