  • EGP Keno El Guerrero de KBoltz parents were bred in Serbia. Dam was sent to the USA after being bred. Both Parents have multiple conformation titles in multiple European countries. We Purchased him from K-Boltz Kennels at 8 weeks old. He is an International and National champion. He has an UKC Rally Obedience title, and his AKC canine good citizen title. On this video it was his first time doing any bite work. But he had shown signs that he wanted to do this since he arrived to our home. He has since earned other protection titles. His job is to protect my family and home. He has been test on home break in too. We left a door unlocked. We left the home. We had a decoy show up and try to enter our home. Keno did not allow him in. He bit the decoy. He did his job. Most people foolishly believe that their dog will protect them or protect their homes because the dog bark. But unfortunately most will not. The bark is worst than the bite. The dog should have some training. The dog should be tested too see if it will do the work. We even do carjacking and kidnapping scenarios when training. 

     

    Keno is an old dog now. The black mask has turned white. But he is still agile. He still protects the home. The young dogs learn from him to bark at strangers. I tried to find some videos of his mother Hena. I've seen multiple videos of her back in 2010, but I can't locate them now. 

     

    The dog in the background with Keno is an Australian Cattle Dog. We got Auggie from the shelter. We saw him in a shelter. He was the only dog in a cage by himself. There were other dogs that had donation in their envelops on their cages. But he didn't have any donations in his envelop. But we gave him a home. He loved to do protection work too. When we got him we thought he was just gong to be a pet. We didn't know anything about the breed. Soon we learned that they were bred to work. They were courageous and herded cattle.
