Why Choose VIPK9?
VIPK9 combines extensive canine experience with a background in Police Specialist Operations to deliver a considered approach to family and personal protection dogs. Every dog is carefully assessed, selected and developed with temperament, stability and control at the forefront. We take the time to match each dog to the right family and provide the guidance and ongoing support needed to build a successful partnership.
How It Works
Every protection dog placement begins with understanding you, your family and what you need from a dog. From selecting the right dog to tailored training and development, we manage the process through to handover, ensuring both dog and family are prepared for a successful partnership.
Dogs Available to Reserve
Selected dogs are available to reserve at different ages and stages of development, allowing you to secure your dog early and follow its progression towards its final trained role.
Depending on the dog’s stage, development can be tailored around the requirements of its future family, lifestyle and environment. This allows you to reserve a dog early in its journey while its training continues towards the finished protection dog you are looking for.
Chaos
6-Month-Old Dark Sable Male German Shepherd
Chaos is a particularly impressive young German Shepherd with an exceptional temperament and a strong foundation for continued development.
He is KC registered and comes from health-tested parents. At just six months old, he has already demonstrated an excellent ability to remain calm, confident and neutral across a wide range of environments, people and situations.
He has an excellent temperament around children, with the stability and social neutrality we look for in a future family protection dog. He is environmentally confident, handles new experiences well and consistently demonstrates the temperament required for continued development.
Chaos is available to reserve now and will remain with VIPK9 while his training and development continues. His programme can then be shaped around the requirements of his future family, lifestyle and environment, with the aim of producing the finished protection dog that is right for that placement.
