Not true!! The dog isn't dumb!! They know what that bite sleeve us for. I did 9
plus years of k9 bitework/tracking/ being chased...etc...they know....besides
the dog is gonna do "real time" bite work without the sleeve...if need be!! The
no sleeve thing shows the dog is alert regardless and is ready at a moments
notice. Angela

Look at this way, is it not true that others will come away thinking that?
I mentioned not a good idea to not wear armor if you were training a dog.
It is not a good to show a GSD going after a person in that fashion
without a training armor. I learned by talking to Police Officers at their
events not a good idea. Why do you think the GSD is getting such a bad
rap?

The first scene was with a sleeve and the next was just demonstrating

that this is how the dog was trained...it was a photo op.
Seems that people want to create an entire story from 2
seconds of video...sheesh. cynthia

I agree not a good idea not to wear protective gear with
training a dog to protect. The GSD is an amazing natural protective
dog for his or her family and needs no training to protect them.

The video was very
interesting,
especially the segment about
the Training that Uno went
through.
I'm still scratching my head over the
fact that the "target" in the clip didn't
have
the protective gear on. Not very
safe, IMO; if
the dog had gotten too close,
it could have been a serious
injury.
I often wonder if it is
always necessary to train a GSD as a
protection dog. Case in point: My late GSD Tacoma had
a natural protection/attack instinct that
didn't need
development. He came from
German Working Lines, and he
didn't
have any Schutzhund or other
protection training. One night I had to take a
friend to the ER of a hospital in a nearby
city, and I took
Tacoma along for
protection. After I had dropped the
friend off, I took Tacoma out of the van in the Parking
lot
for a break before we drove home. An
aggressive drunk
came toward me demanding
Money, and before I could even
react,
Tacoma hit the end of the lead so hard it
hyperextended my elbow. He wanted that guy for
Dinner. The drunk slipped on the ice in the
parking
lot trying to get away and fell
down, breaking an
ankle. He laid on the
ground screaming "Don't
let that
dog loose." Two security guards had seen
the action on their screens, called 911, and
came out
to secure the area. When the
guards showed up, Tacoma
looked at them
briefly, then went back to watching the
drunk. I had trained Tacoma in German, and as soon as
the guards showed up, I gave him the
"aus"
command, then
"sitz-bleib", and he sat and waited,
still watching the drunk, who was now
threatening to
"sue" me for
letting Tacoma "attack"
him.
The Police showed up, arrested the drunk ( who
thanked them for protecting him against the
"vicious" dog and his
"bloodthirsty
owner" (sic).
They had a good laugh over that
one.
Without training, Tacoma
recognised the threat, responded,
and then
calmed down when he realised the drunk was no
longer a threat. But he kept on watching
him. He
also distinguished between the
Good Guys (guards and police)
and the bad
guy (the drunk) and knew who he had to pay
attention to. He immediately obeyed my commands, and
he calmly got back into the van while the
Police and
Security Guards got my
statement. In other words,
Tacoma
instinctively knew what to do at each point in the
situation, with no training in such a
situation.
Why spend $$ on training
when these GSDs already seem to
know what
to do? I'm sure that any GSD would have
done the same thing.
