Training Scope & Investment Expectations
All HighClass K9 dogs include:
✔ Handler training
✔ Custom transition plan
✔ Lifetime support
✔ Global delivery options available
HighClass K9 does not sell pre-packaged training tiers.
Every dog we place is evaluated, trained, and matched based on temperament, maturity, and suitability for a specific household.
Rather than offering rigid packages, we define training scope according to real-world requirements and long-term placement success.
The following outlines the primary training scopes clients may encounter during the placement process.
This scope is designed for families and individuals seeking a highly obedient, confident dog whose presence alone provides meaningful deterrence.
Typical characteristics include:
Exceptional on- and off-leash obedience
Stable temperament in public and private environments
Neutrality around people, children, and other animals
Strong natural presence without active engagement expectations
These dogs are ideal for clients who value peace of mind, structure, and reliability without requiring advanced protection work.
Typical investment orientation:
Mid five-figure range
$25,000–$40,000 Range
Description:
This dog is a well-balanced, beautifully trained companion ideal for families or individuals wanting a reliable, social, and impressive dog without the intensity or demands of a high-civil protector. The dog demonstrates solid obedience, stable temperament, and excellent household manners. While not selected for advanced executive protection, the dog carries enough presence, intelligence, and confidence to deter opportunistic threats by appearance and behavior alone.
This tier reflects:
Strong temperament with low reactivity
Good nerve strength and environmental confidence
Reliable obedience (primarily on-leash, with emerging off-leash reliability)
Social, affectionate, and easy to live with
Attractive structure and size, though not extreme or rare
Ideal For:
Families, beginners, households wanting a calm and sophisticated dog that enhances lifestyle and security presence without requiring advanced handling.
This scope builds upon foundational obedience with increased precision, responsiveness, and environmental resilience. It also adds handler-initiated deterrence and protection. Deterrence and protection is intentional, reversible, and handler-controlled which provides meaningful protection presence while maintaining stability around children, guests, and routine activity.
Typical characteristics include:
High-level off-leash reliability under distraction
Advanced command execution
Increased handler control in complex environments
Calm, confident behavior in travel and public-facing situations
This scope is often appropriate for clients with elevated expectations for control, responsiveness, and security.
Typical investment orientation:
Upper five-figure range
$25,000–$40,000 Range

Typical characteristics include:
Discernment-based protection work
Scenario and environmental conditioning
Advanced handler integration and responsibility
Ongoing guidance and stewardship
This scope is approached conservatively and only when it supports long-term success for both dog and client.
Best suited for:
Families or individuals with elevated security concerns
Multi-property or high-visibility lifestyles
Owners who value capability with restraint
Typical investment orientation:
Varies significantly based on suitability and placement requirements
