I just got my 13 month female GSD back from 5 weeks of OB and protection training. I know I must continue working with her, and I want to. She has excellent food drive, but is not as aggressive in her protection work as I would like. She is a calm, obedient house dog from working lines. I know this is limited information, and I will answer any questions. My question is if I were to purchase one DVD right now, which should it be? What should be the order of my DVD purchases? Thanks for the input. If more information will help you to better answer my question, let me know, and I'll try to help. Thanks again.
Mark, you've got a 13 month old female. Even with a nice male, you probably wouldn't see any serious aggression from most lines at that age. Females, as a general rule, won't show as much aggression. As for which video, I'll let the better brains suggest that.

Has she been finished? 5 weeks seems about right to finish her off in PP, but you failed to mention if she was or not.
After getting Cleo back from my trainer, I continue to focus on Obedience. Without obedience you have nothing. Second, you can still work her in prey as well. I really liked the Flinks DVD. It will Dovetail nicely with what you have done to date and keep her drives and focus up.

Mark, I'm familiar with the lines your female is from I had a grandson from Ursel. The dogs that I've seen from Elk/Ursel and Brix/Ursel usually are strong in the protection part of Sch. They are a little slow to mature but once they do they seem to handle pressure well. I would work her in prey for 5 or 6 more months. Then have a professional take a look and see if she is ready to start working in defense. There's a huge difference between a sch dog and a true personal protection dog.
Not sure how Elk,Ursel't and Brix got in the story but Mark if you have something from these lines PM me. I know the lines very well and have a Ursel't/Brix daughter. I'll be glad to share info and videos on them.

Lorenzo, Mark pm me last month and told me his pup was from Ursel line. Didn't keep his message and now can't remember the sire's side. I know Ursel has produced well with Brix Stoffelblick and Elk Karthago and with others she was bred to. This year she had a pup from Elk in the US Nationals Zico Linnershof. She also had a pup from Brix to compete at the 2005 FCI World Championships Boss linnershof.
