What exactly is an Elite Family and Estate Protection Dog? We’ve created a Training Program Comparison Page to help illustrate the differences within our programs.

This is the most recent work sheet our trainers use to track their progress. The recipe for our elite program. As our training evolves so does the work sheet.
