Book excerpt: In today's world with its atmosphere of cruelty and increasing violence, people are more than ever thinking about the need to somehow protect themselves and their loved ones. One option is a guard dog. You can also choose from firearms, various alarm systems, and mastery of martial arts. In addition, there are private agencies that provide protection for those who need it and are willing to pay. But, in general, the choice is quite limited. Those who settled on a dog usually ask a lot of questions. Our goal is to answer them as far as possible by talking about the real state of affairs and about the myths associated with service dogs, as well as about the responsibility to others and before the law that falls on the owners of guard dogs. Step by step, the reader will go through the entire path of the owner of such a dog - from choosing a puppy to special training. The book concludes with several true stories about guard dogs. The main thing that motivated us to start working on this book is the desire to help future owners of guard dogs. We decided to compile for them something like a short guide to the country, which is called "Training", and put on the map all the roads leading there. We didn't want anyone to think that our method was the only possible one. No, there are different methods, different styles of training, different techniques. We describe what we ourselves use in practice, but at the same time we constantly emphasize: everything must be done under the supervision of a professional trainer. We will consider that we have reached our goal if our book at least partly satisfies someone's curiosity, helps someone understand the benefits of non-violent training and understand the difficult problems that confront a person who has decided trust the dog for your own safety and security his families.
