– Ministry of Defence, 2024

With our expertise and dedication, we provide highly trained working dogs that excel in their roles, ensuring the safety and security of our nation and beyond. 

A working dog is used to perform practical tasks and is specially trained and employed in meaningful work. As opposed to being a pet or companion, a working dog will be used in the army, police, or prison service.

Police & working dogs all have a mixture of traits that make them easier to train for the role they will be fulfilling. Often these breeds will be highly alert, assertive, intelligent, and observant. These personality traits help them to be fully trained as a working dog or police dog as they will be able to respond to commands, observe and react quickly to situations around them. They will also be able to be calm in difficult situations and respond appropriately.

Are Working Dogs Easy To Train?

As certain dog breeds are more suitable for being a working or police dog, you will find their characteristics make them highly trainable. With a blend of intelligence and alertness, they tend to pick up commands more quickly.

Do Working Dogs Live A Good Life?

There’s often a concern that working dogs are treated unfairly or not in the best conditions. However, here at A&T Trained Dogs, all of our dogs receive the utmost care, and attention by ensuring their every need is met and more. They will undergo quality dog training whilst also being cared for by our expert team, ensuring the chance to thrive at our facilities. Often, working dog tendencies will be to make their owner proud, so there is mutual respect between the dogs and those around them.

Do Working Dogs Retire?

Yes, working dogs technically will retire eventually, but there are no real restrictions on this. As they get older, their alertness and movement will typically slow down, so there are natural signs when you will know they are ready. Because there is no set age, owners will be able to pick up on whether the dog is feeling more strained than usual or cannot do the job as effectively any more.
