Honestly, I would avoid entirely. The dog we received was green, nervous (spun in circles), had accidents in the house, and was immediately obviously not able to follow the commands without the trainer present. We called the kennel same day of arrival and let them know the issues with the dog. They offered to replace. Once I saw how bad the dog looked I was very skeptical of any “replacement” we settled on a refund BUT -i had to pay for shipping back (2k) -i had to wait until “assessment” and resale for any refund -refund would be “only what they could sell the dog for” The kennel blamed us for “ruining” the dog (which we had only had a few months because they had told us when we first brought it to their attention the dog needed to “settle” to be able to work the commands). I could also not ethically return this neurotic, non working, beaten down dog to some unsuspecting family or agency that the kennel would pass off as a “working” dog. The kennel gave various excuses as to why the dog wasn’t working commands - but it came down to the dog was just neurotic and acted like an abused shelter dog with some basic obedience commands. We eventually realized the deal to ship her back and lose more money and “possibly” get a refund after she was “assessed” for the “damages” and resold... was just a bad deal. The dog was donated to a family who was in need. The dog does not bark for intruders or invasion of home, personal, or vehicle Space. Knock on the door no problem. No barking. The dog does not follow advanced commands. The dog is not fully house broken. The dog is scared of loud noises such as traffic, trucks, or people. The dog knows basic commands only. She is neurotic around ANY balls (soccer/ football/ baseball), pool noodles, and will go so crazy she will tear off her leash and there is no redirection. The family is unable to take her to public parks for this reason.the dog is not kennel trained. She spins and has accidents in her kennel. She chews out of soft kennels. She is a neurotic mess!! NOT a working protection dog by any means, but fine as a project dog for a family.
