“We are thrilled with Cash! He adapted to our family with confidence and ease. He joins in our activities with enthusiasm, incredible obedience and self control. Every day is a joy as he surprises us with his abilities, agility and devotion to us. One wouldn’t believe Cash’s ability to do protection work given his “puppy” like playfulness. When we take him out for walks people comment on how beautiful the color of his hair is and how well behaved he is. I am amazed by Cash’s intelligence and his understanding of commands in addition to carrying them out to perfection. When playing ball and Kong (which he loves) he is intense, eager, coordinated and great fun for us. Steve Scott is exceptional. He knows how to pick extraordinary dogs and is a superb teacher both to the dogs and their owners. We are extremely impressed with Steve’s skills and character. We were very impressed with Steve’s professionalism, his confidence, knowledge and his patient demeanor in dealing with Cash and with us during the training period. I cannot say enough great things about Steve and Cash. Steve told me after our first phone call that a Belgian Malinois that he has would be a good match for my wife and me. I was skeptical at first given the amount of research and conversations I had with other dog trainers saying that this breed wouldn’t be a good dog for a first time handler. Steve enlightened me about the Belgian Malinois. He has also been attentive and patient with me (helping me over the phone) during the entire process. We are deeply grateful for this wonderful dog. I investigated numerous competitor companies for a family protection dog that can not only protect but be 100% friendly and obedient. If this is what you are looking for then nothing comes close to Scott’s K9 and the individualized attention given to the dogs and prospective owners.”
“I was unaware of family protection dogs until I went in search for a “companion” dog for our little girl, Lucy. Lucy is four years old and suffers from a long list of medical challenges – her main diagnosis is Cerebral Palsy. She is non-ambulatory and non-verbal. Our wish was for Lucy to have a dog that would be her best friend but also protect her when she is ready to go to school. My search led me to Steve Scott. I had a very long, in-depth conversation with Steve over the phone about protection dogs. Steve really took the time to educate me on the capabilities and the purpose of protection dogs. Girl in leopard print coat Lucy and I often drive far distances to see specialists. My husband and I also have three sons so it’s not always an option for me and my husband to travel together with Lucy to her appointments. The week after I spoke with Steve, Lucy and I ran into a very scary situation on one of our trips. I was separated from Lucy at a desolate gas station with an attendant that had ill intentions. I was overcome with fear that if anything were to happen to me, Lucy is helpless. She cannot run and she cannot scream for help. Fortunately, we were able to get out of the situation unharmed, but all of the conditions were right for something to go very wrong. This was a Friday, I called Steve Saturday morning. I explained to Steve what happened and we determined that our need was more than companionship for Lucy, we needed protection. Steve initially had a dog in mind for our family, but during training he determined she wasn’t the best fit so he introduced us to Maize. Maize is a perfect fit! While her obedience is unbelievable and her desire to work and protect is strong, she is also very gentle and loving with our children. She has been a wonderful addition to our family! It has been a real pleasure working with Steve. Just a small amount of time with Steve, and it was quite obvious that he has a passion for his work and his knowledge of the business is top-notch. Steve has taken the time to make sure that we were comfortable with Maize and has been available and patient for our many questions. Just a cursory search of the various websites and the horror stories associated with so many protection dog companies, it is easy to see how lucky we were to find a great one right in our back yard. Overall, we couldn’t be any happier than we are with the service, professionalism, and quality of Scott’s K-9 and that comes directly from Steve Scott. We can’t thank him enough.”
“Words cannot describe the amazing impact our Dutch Shepherd has on our lives. From the moment we met our dog Arco, we saw his professional training and dedication to our safety. Arco’s acute training and breeding have given him the tools to hone in on my serious health issues. Once again he’s gone above and beyond the call of duty. I never leave home without him. Whenever we do business with any company the most important thing is customer service. During our purchase, delivery and after-sales communication has been impeccable. We have recommended Scott’s K9 to all who have thought of getting a Protection Dog. He is the best weapon in this crazy world we live in.”
“I had the pleasure of meeting Steve Scott a little over three years ago. I explained to Steve the needs of my Police Department and his professionalism and extensive knowledge was immediately apparent. Steve provided us with an exceptional dual-purpose malinois who was “street ready” and performs his duties at a high level in a tough urban environment. We got more than we hoped for and needless to say, obtained another Malinois trained by Steve. Steve Scott continues to share his extensive knowledge with us and has personally come to the Philadelphia area to assist us with training and certifications.”
“AXA was personally delivered to me by Stephen Scott in January of this year. Not only is she an outstanding and extremely well trained dog, but Scott had a special request from me that was extremely critical before I could introduce AXA into my home. I have two Jack Russel TERRIERISTS that AXA had to tolerate. And that is no easy task. Scott’s kept AXA another 6 weeks and had her live in the house with multiple small dogs. She has adapted beautifully and tolerates the TERRIERISTS well. She and I are joined at the hip. And she does sleep in bed with me.”
“Steve, I wanted to say Thank you! For always answering my text or calls, for giving great advice, for checking in on us, for making every step in our process easy ( purchase, delivery & numerous questions). Holex is an AMAZING good looking animal with great instincts and heart of gold. We’ve been together a little over a month now and our bond is so strong. Holex is very protective and is a great running partner. We’ve been in the woods, at dog parks and on running/ hiking trails and he’s always focused on the task while ignoring other dogs passing by. Holex is able to remain focus on what I need him to do because of the level of training you’ve provided to him…. Outstanding! Thank you again for my well trained, protective running partner. We’re currently in training for a half marathon!”
“Dear Mr Scott, I had to write to tell you what a wonderful experience it has been working with you and your company. First impressions mean a lot, especially to a novice in the world of protection dogs. I found your company online and from the first call, I knew I was in the right place. The staff answered my calls promptly and answered all of my questions. They took the time to assess my living situation and suggest the dogs for me. I was nervous, with many questions. They answered every call like it was the first. Very polite and knowledgeable. Once we had settled on a dog- the buying experience was a breeze. Transfer of funds and documents was smooth and easy. I was provided with a contract that detailed exactly what I was getting. And I even received pictures of my dog as I was waiting for her. The day she was delivered was fun and informative, as I was taught how to speak with and handle my new best friend. Once again, even after delivery, my calls were answered each and every time. Never was I left high and dry or to fend for myself. It is obvious that this company really cares about both their dogs and their clients. “And the dogs?” I saved the best for last. They are beyond awesome. I purchased a male and a female. They were absolutely everything they were purported to be. Steady, even, stable dogs with spot on obedience and even a sense of fun. They can pass for family pets only—that is how kind and gentle they are. But make no mistake—their protection work is impressive. My husband is away from home a lot and I never have a moment of fear since my two dogs arrived. They are fabulous dogs. I would not trade them for anything and I have not one moment of regret. My quality of life has gone up 200% since they arrived. And finally, Mr Scott—as the owner of the business, you have been a pleasure to work with and get to know. It is obvious that you love what you do and care about both your dogs and your clients. The dogs are highly trained but in a way that doesn’t break their spirit. Their joy is intact and evident. That takes a great deal of compassion and skill. Thank you so much for my fabulous dogs. I will never go anywhere else should I need another dog.”
“If you want a REAL protection dog – then call Steve Scott. The dog I received was nothing short of a police dog: very high drive and very protective. But the dog was also never handler or people aggressive which made for a perfect combination.”
“I’m a single mom with 4 children and wanted to find the perfect dog for a pet as well as protection purposes. The first time that I talked to Steve Scott he immediately knew which of his dogs would be a good fit for us and he couldn’t have been more right. Flipper was personally delivered by Mr. Scott himself and from the first minute he was there he was already part of our family. I take Flipper to work with me every day and he is able to transition between fun family time at home to quiet work time flawlessly. Flipper displays a loyalty and obedience that I have never seen in another dog. He is loving and gentle but yet I know that he wouldn’t hesitate to give his life to protect myself or my kids. I have never felt safer than when I have him by my side. To me, that is priceless. From our first contact until today Steve has been readily available to answer ANY questions that I might have. No matter how ridiculous they might be. The buying process was super simple and I could not be more pleased with this purchase. I didn’t have any handling experience with dogs and before Steven even finished the two day training course I felt like a pro. I would recommend Scotts’ Police K-9 to anyone who is interested in a highly trained, well mannered and over all excellent dog. Thank you!”
“Not sure I can say anything else that hasn’t been said from the other reviews. I’ve gotten two dogs from Scott’s K9. Both are simply amazing. I think Steve’s unique skill/differentiator is learning about his clients and being able to pair the right dog – not just by need, but also personality. I believe that helped us connect with our dogs quicker.”
