Raise & Train Protection Dogs

Iron Sharp K9’s Raise & Trains Program teaches your dogs elite protection through a structured, tiered system designed by Stan at Iron Sharp K9. Whether you want peace of mind at home or world-class protection on the go, we have a program for you.

Program Overview — 4 Tiers of Protection

Tier 1: Deterrent Dog (Presence Protector)

  • Solid temperament & confidence in public

  • Obedience basics (sit, down, stay, heel, recall)

Tier 2: Obedient Protector (Leash-Controlled Defense)

  • Advanced obedience on leash

  • Alert command: protective posture

  • Engage/bite on command

  • Out command: immediate release

Tier 3: Public Defender (Off-Leash & Public Ready)

  • Off-leash obedience in distractions

  • Distance sends & reliable recall

  • Neutral in airports, restaurants, and crowds

  • Obedience even under high-drive protection scenarios. Best for professionals, travelers, and public-facing families who need discreet, dependable protection

Tier 4: Elite Guardian (Full Tactical Dog)

  • Building searches & room sweeps

  • Vehicle defense & carjacking scenarios

  • Air travel ready & TSA neutralization

  • Multi-attacker drills & stress-proofing
