How to Train your DUTCH SHEPHERD DOG

Training Your Dutch Shepherd Dog

The Dutch Shepherd is a brilliant, highly athletic, and fiercely protective working dog. They are highly trainable and absolutely dominate in protection sports.

Key Training Tips:

• Channel the Energy: They require a job to do. Advanced obedience, herding, or protection sports are mandatory to keep them mentally sound and well-behaved.
• Firm Leadership: They are strong-willed and will quickly dominate a weak owner. You must establish strict rules and enforce them with calm consistency.

They are intensely loyal "one-person" dogs that require an experienced, highly active handler.
