Sierra Working Dogs

Chico Working dogs sports or protection dog sports have continued to grow in popularity with local clubs popping up just about everywhere. Schutzhund was the first working dog sport to make its way to the United States from Germany nearly four decades ago. It was the pinnacle of dog sports for many years and still remains very popular today. Since the arrival of Schutzhund, many other Sierra working dogs sports have made their way from Europe and have grown immensely in popularity. These include the French Ring, Belgian Ring and basically a combination of the two, Mondio Ring.

Regardless of what goal you have for your dog, personal protection or participating and maybe even competing in one of these sports, their foundation in grip work or bite development is all the same.


Sierra Canine can start your dog with building confidence and drive, and then make all the progressions through each prey item to help you reach your ultimate goal. As previously stated, all of our programs are customized to your goals and budget. We can help you with anything from certain obedience exercises for these Sierra working dogs sports to starting a puppy and finishing them until they are on a sleeve or bite suit.

Here we are working on developing drive and a full grip. We are also desensitizing this puppy to different objects used in working dogs sports as stressors.

 HAPPY DOG-OWNERS:

"I am sharing the story of Jonah because Dennis really saved Jonah’s life. I believe Jonah was up for adoption because at ninety pounds he was a real menace at the end of a leash. I strongly feel that Jonah would have ended up going from home to home or being put-down due to his dog aggressive behavior. So, thank you Dennis for showing us the way!"

"He was not always like this, he was a holy terror! After the first day there was a change in him. It is a life changing experience."
