This is my first video showing this style. I have been teaching it to all the dogs in my club now.

Nice Puppy!

Mike,
while I enjoyed the video ( it looked like an ASR trial, btw ) , I am sad that you chose to use the word "attack dog" in both the title of the video and in the Youtube information area.

The use of the term "attack dog" does not help the public imagine of PP dog training and in fact simply feeds into the public fear of training and owning these type of dogs.

With BSL becoming a constant battle for us, videos using these terms work *against* us and supply ammo to the BSL politicians.
Please, think like a professional that wants a job training PPDs ten years from now ( instead of being forced underground by BSL ) and rename your video there and remove those loaded words.
You may think that splashing the term "attack dog" in your video helps you sell dogs, but you need to take a long term view of things, trust me on this!

And what style is this? Doggy 'Whoflungchew'? I see nothing but a modified flee or face, defense of handler attack with a regrip on the armed arm.

The style is whophlungpoo, an ancient and heretofore secret style of dog training recently rediscovered through meditation and enlightenment never before achieved by an American.

Training with this master will open doors to technique never before available to the student of traditional K-9 arts or ASR street fighters, Police K-9 groundfighters, and Schitzhund Boxers!

Sorry Mike but you opened yourself up to that one!!!!!!!

well if Mike lived near me I'd train with him, but I do agree with Will, might want to tone down the "attack" dog language, you might attract the wrong customers, I do think its pretty cool to watch a PPD willing to dance with the bad guy

No doubt Dennis I bet Mike would be a riot to train with, it looks like fun scenario training.

But for me still seeing the dog bite like he did on a screaming banshee with a suit on in the middle of the woods is something that any Mondio or French Ring sport dog would do even with low prey drive.

Like for example after one of our training sessions. A bunch of them where partying it up, I'm to old and decrepit to party like that so I went to bed. So one of my buddies comes in (it is pitch black) and throws a bite suit jacket on my bed and gets his dog to ATTACK!!! Well I just covered up my privates turned on my side and pretended to be asleep as a 68 lb male FR3 Malinois went ape on the jacket on top of me. Trust me once a bite trained dog knows what the suit is, there is nothing black magic about it. For the dog it is a party.

Also the threat of a crowbar ..like really does the dog know it is a crowbar? Without konking the dog on the noggin hard with it, it could just be a padded SchH stick for all it is worth.

Fun? .. Yes! Dog party? .. Yes! Advanced fighting? .. I don't think so.

I got Roxie and Erika, For Roxie the decoy is a play buddy, Erika is a bit nastier, I just wish I could break free long enough to develop Erika into a real protection dog.

I dunno Dennis. To me a "real" protection dog is a dog that is a deterrent. As romantic as it sounds a "real" protection dog that engages for "real", really to me IMHO is more a 24/7 liability for a homeowner than a good thing.

I heard a funny quote last week that sums it up for me .. "Nothing says personal protection more than the sound of a racking slide on your Remington 870"

I got four GSDs, put them all together and they make one good protection dog. Maggie is the Jerk detector, she can sense a perp in a second, Max has that deep bark and display, will even throw himself at the fence but in reality is a wuss, Roxie will bite and hold Erika will savage and shread. all four at the moment are all around me and the Mrs asleep. Don't like guns around right now, I got a fifteen year old with a bad case of the stupids
