What makes Harrison K9 different from other trainers?

Harrison Prather and Harrison K9 Security Services LLC has many different methods that have been put to the test in training and handling the German Shepherd. Our training staff is almost entirely female. Harrison Prather, President and CEO has a female training staff that is utilized to make sure all of our dogs can be handled by you and your family. No large bulky Police/Military trained testosterone full men, barking out commands and slinging dogs around out here. Our staff handles with positive training and attention to each individual dogs personality. You can be assured our dogs can be handled by your family, be they children or a family member that would otherwise be intimidated by a large dog. Most training facilities use men for training, because men can intimidate dogs and force them to do the training, whereas female trainers must use their handling skills and take the time to bond with the dog to train and control an animal that weighs almost as much as they do. Wouldn’t you want a dog that has learned to behave around people, learned loyalty and devotion, and has learned how to be handles by “little” people in your life versus a dog that has to be forced into training and only a man can make him work right. Leave the Police/Military training to the Police and Military, all you want in your home is a dog that knows how to behave with “regular normal people”. Its not that we don’t use male trainers, as we expose our dogs to all sorts of handlers; we make sure every dog that leaves here is able to be handled by women, children and men alike.

Why not buy a dog from the Internet?

Anyone can be anything they want on the Internet, with the advancements in technology today a home-based dog trainer can look like a top-notch company. Most of these “companies” don’t even list an address because they don’t want you to visit, they always want to bring the dog to you or meet you at a local park, They can call their facility top rated but the majority put their dogs off the ground in “In-door rabbit runs” to avoid having a full working staff to exercise, groom, train,clean up after and love their dogs. The dogs rarely get out of the rabbit-run, except to do a little work, until they are sold. They buy cheap untitled dogs that Europeans are trying to dump and then try to turn them into high-dollar personal protection dogs. Of course they can make a profit: they have little or nothing invested in their product and nothing to lose.

Harrison K-9 Security Services,LLC. is a multi million dollar facility located on twenty-five acres in Aiken, South Carolina. We use over sized kennels and all of our dogs get to go out and train and play everyday. We have a half-acre turn out pens they run in daily and a full staff of professionals that take a dog home with them every night and socialize them around their own family and friends. Our dogs are imported from one of the top kennels in Germany and all dogs are raised in the home with familes, not in kennels. We would never sell a dog that we would not have in our own home. Call Harrison Prather, President and CEO or November Holley, Vice President and Lead trainer at 803-649-5936, today to discuss what your own personal protection dog can do for you and your family, or check out the website at www.harrisonk9.com.
