Dog Health Questions: Dog Training Advice Needed?

A friend on mine lives in a very horrible area, extremely ghetto.
He has two dogs he wants to train to protect him. He's been keeping the dogs with him 24/7 and they are only 13 weeks old.
He doesn't like anyone touching them or giving them treats because he doesn't want them to like other people. He loves them but is there another route to training them to be guard/protection dogs? I can tell he hates keeping them cooped up everyday in either his bedroom ( he is 17 ) or in the yard for bathroom breaks.

The Benefits Of Dog Training Classes

Recommended Answer:
He needs to get a professional trainer who specialized in training dogs as protection/guard dogs. While it may sound like an easy thing to do, more often then not, the dogs become aggressive and dangerous to everyone, the owner included. Have him invest in the money to have the dogs professionally trained.

• Your friend doesn't know what he is doing to those dogs, they will be very unbalanced dogs with that cruel treatment.
  
  He doesn't just need dog training, he needs common sense training. Obviously if he knew what he was doing, he wouldn't get two at the same time, all the time he leaves them together, they bond to each other - not him - not a good idea.
  
  Does he need PROTECTION because he is mentally deficient?
  Sounds like it!


• If they don't get socialized, be with other dogs and people, they'll only turn out to be problematic. To train them to be proper guard dogs they should be extremely disciplined so no accidents happen with family members and such- especially if they are large breed. As they are now, they are likely to grow to be unmanageable- especially when locked up in a small space all day.


• those dogs are going to end up majorly ****ed if they dont get out and get some socialization. No people dont necessarily have to pet them, but a protection dog has to be born first, then trained by a qualified professional. If they dont have the correctly bred for temperaments, then he is just going to have a bunch of aggressive fear biters, not something he can count upon for protection.
  
  Get a gun instead.


• what he is doing is very dangerous for the dogs people and himself, when dogs get that type of unprofessional training they become dangerous and he could find himself in jail if the dogs kill someone. the dogs can be trained to protect him but it must be done by a proffessional.


• He is not socializing his dogs and that is very dangerous for them and for other people. He should get his dogs professionally trained to be guard dogs. You can have a pet that is loving and friendly that will protect when needed.


• There are many dog training classes for this. If your friend keeps up his dogs are going to be the ones you read about that maul or kill someone. Sometimes local kennel clubs and such in the area can offer great classes for cheap.


• He is abusing his puppies. Sorry to say this but obviously he is unable to treat them well. If dogs do not interact with other people, they will not learn about anybody other than their owner.


• This is abuse.
  Tell him to get a security system.
