| Khun Prapakorn Intarawong and Khum Pornrat Engpaiboon are the guardians of "Owen", 2 yrs 6 month old male Rottweiler, the very first Rottweiler in Thailand that had completed and passed the Guarding Dog examination (SchHI) by the GDAT on August 8, 1999. | ||||||

"Before we had Owen, we used to have to German Shepherds dog, named
"Shop and Champ" which we sent to Sukhumvit Dogs School for
training. We knew about Sukhumvit Dogs School From a book, in a
column interviewing Khum Pichai Tanatavikorn. That was some thing
like 5 or 6 years ago. It struck me. The result of Shop and Champ's
training was extremely satisfying. Now they are at my mother's
because she lives in such a neighborhood where burglaries are
prevalent. Since they have been sent to my mother's, the burglary
stopped and no more things are stolen from her property."
"When we had Owen, we didn't hesitate to send him to Sukhumvit Dogs School. because we have the comfidence in their trainers and systematic training, But Sukhumvit Dogs School referred Owen to K9 Pattaya since the premises are larger so Owen would have plenty of space to exercise. And the result proved what the school claimed, Owen returned very strong and healthy. He used to be very fat and weighted 45 kilograms. It was very fortunate we had trainer Net to look after him for us. He had really weak hind legs; he couldn't even manage half a foot jump. Trainer Net had him run all the time, as a result he could jump higher and higher every time we visited him, which certainly exceeded our expectations. Actually, all dogs have their abilities. It depend on the trainer whether he/she is able to unleash those capabilities. We were very lucky to have a trainer who understands the dog and know his job" "Owen" is very possessive of his home. He will bark at any untidily dressed strangers and prevent their entries. But if stop him, he will obey, by stop barking but would not leave the strangers out of sight. When he sees other dogs running towards him, he would just stay immediately charge at those packs of dogs. When I say stop, he will, Owen is such a good dog, whenever barks annoyingly." "When Owen come back home after completing the course, he got very ill one day. As soon as his trainer learned the news, he called and asked how Owen was doing whether if the was recovering. Frankly, I was very impressed, I never thought that this kind of dog training school does exist! Although the dogs are no longer with them, courses completed; they still do follow up. Now we have just sent Mafia, another 6 month old Rottweiler to K9 Pattaya. The quality of K9 Pattaya has been evident by the results. Otherwise we wouldn't have continually sent three of our dogs there for training, and the fourth one also. For we trust them." "In our feeling dogs are just like 4-5 year old kids, if he does something that we don't like, just a word; he would stop and he quiet, then just leave. If it was with someone else, he would bark at them straight away. We never beat him. If we want to reprimand him, we just turn his face towards us, look him in the eyes and tell him what was wrong. He would then look away, the dog must be afraid of us, not we of them." "We strongly disagree with the training by means of using food to lure them to follow commands. What if there is no food, would the dogs obey? We must also keep in mind that trained dogs must be able to utilized his abilities afterwards." "Assessments and tests after training are concrete evidences of how dogs have progressed and the trainers' efficiencies can be demonstrated. Sukhumvit Dogs School should keep on this practice for this is unique and a very good thing to do." |
