Home invasions can be terrifying events that put homeowners and their families at risk. Having a home security system or alarm may deter some criminals, but these passive measures do little to actually prevent a determined intruder. This is why many homeowners are now turning to Family protection dogs as an active deterrent and defense against home invasions.
In this post, we’ll explore the unique benefits provided by protection dogs, how they can prevent home invasions, and why Scott’s K9 is the top choice for protection dog training.
How Protection Dogs Deter Home Invasions
Protection dogs are highly trained canines that use their acute hearing and sense of smell to detect potential threats to a home. Unlike home alarm systems, protection dogs are an active, intelligent defense. Here are some of the ways trained protection dogs help prevent home invasions:
- Intimidating Presence– Protection dogs, especially larger breeds like German Shepherds and Belgian Malinois, have an intimidating appearance that can deter would-be intruders. Most burglars will think twice before attempting to enter a home guarded by a barking protection dog.
- Alert Barking– When a protection dog detects an intruder on the perimeter of the property, they will issue loud, deep barks to alert the homeowners and scare away the intruder. Their intimidating bark is often enough to prevent a criminal from progressing with their plan.
- Tracking Capabilities– With their superior sense of smell, protection dogs can track the trail of an intruder both inside and outside of the home. This allows them to detect and alert to any break-ins or unusual activity on the property.
- Attack Training– Properly trained protection dogs will defend their territory and their family. They can be commanded to attack or apprehend an intruder if necessary as a last line of defense for homeowners. This attack ability can prevent intruders from being able to fully invade a home.
- 24/7 Security– Protection dogs never take a day off. Their constant presence provides round-the-clock security and threat detection without fail. Intruders are less likely to target a home guarded by a protection dog.
Proper Training is Key
While many dog breeds are naturally protective of their home turf, proper training is key to effectively channeling that protective instinct into appropriate behavior as a home protection dog. Without training, dogs may end up being fearful or reactive, and fail to differentiate between real threats and guests or passersby.
Professional protection dog training like that provided by Scott’s K9 instills obedience, confidence, control, and situational awareness in dogs.
