Family Protection Dogs
Our family protection dogs are trained to defend your loved ones while living peacefully within your home—obedient, calm, and emotionally connected to your family.
Protection That Integrates Seamlessly Into Your Life.
Our family protection dogs are selected not just for their strength and training—but for their ability to bond with your children, respect your space, and become a steady, loving part of your household. These dogs are trained to defend, raised to connect, and ready to integrate seamlessly into everyday life.
What is a Family Protection Dog?
A family protection dog is a canine that’s been professionally trained to respond to threats—but lives comfortably and safely within a home environment. These dogs are different from traditional guard dogs. They don’t just follow commands; they understand their surroundings, respect their family, and stay calm under pressure.
At AlpinHaus, we raise our dogs in real-life settings, so they’re already used to the sounds, chaos, and rhythm of daily home life. Whether it’s toddlers running through the hallways or teenagers coming home late, your dog knows what’s normal—and what isn’t.
Why Choose a Family Protection Dog?
When it comes to your family, nothing is more important than their safety—and nothing protects quite like a trained, intuitive companion who’s always with you. Our dogs are not just trained for action; they’re raised for harmony.
You’re getting:
– 24/7 presence and protection in your home
– A calm, loyal companion for your children
– Real-time threat recognition and response
– Structured, stable behavior inside and outside your home
It’s peace of mind you can see—and feel.

We work with three elite working breeds that consistently demonstrate strong bonding, emotional control, and reliable performance in family settings:

Belgian Malinois

Our Family-Focused Training Program
Our family protection dogs don’t just perform—they understand. Training is grounded in clarity, consistency, and real-world relevance.
Advanced off-leash obedience
Your pet will demonstrate complete compliance with commands, even in the midst of household chaos or high-distraction environments. This includes situations where there may be noise, activity, or other distractions that typically make it challenging for animals to focus.
Threat Recognition & Handler Response
Dogs are taught to read subtle cues and act only when it matters—always under your control.
Child-Safe Behavior & Household Etiquette
Trained around children of all ages, toys, food, visitors, and typical home activity.
Public Behavior & Travel Confidence
Comfortable in cars, around schools, at parks, or on trips—always socially stable and composed.
What Sets Our Dogs Apart
This isn’t security on a leash. This is an evolved, emotionally intelligent partner who knows your rhythms and protects your peace.
Family-First Temperament
Every dog is selected for emotional intelligence, calm confidence, and natural bonding behavior with children and families.
Real-World Socialization
Raised in environments that simulate real homes—so your dog comes ready, not reactive.
Prepared for Everyday Life
Raised around children, other animals (when appropriate), and public environments.
Global Delivery & Support
We deliver to your home and walk your family through every step of the onboarding experience.
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know before bringing home a family protection dog.
Are your family protection dogs safe around young kids?
Yes. Every dog is chosen for emotional stability, calm confidence, and adaptability. We socialize them around real homes and children to ensure they’re safe, gentle, and respectful.
How do the dogs know when to protect and when to relax?
Our dogs are trained to respond to energy and environmental cues—not just commands. They can sense when something is off and act only when it’s appropriate, never out of confusion or excitement.
What if we travel or move often—can the dog adapt?
Yes. These dogs are crate-trained, vehicle-trained, and used to a range of public and private environments. Transitions, travel, and new homes are not a problem.
How do you make sure the dog is right for our family?
We begin every placement with a deep consultation to understand your home, lifestyle, and expectations. We don’t just deliver dogs—we match companions to homes where they’ll thrive.
Can you deliver internationally?
Absolutely. We offer worldwide, white-glove delivery and integration services. Whether you’re in Europe, North America, or abroad, your dog will arrive trained, calm, and ready.
What’s the difference between a family protection dog and a guard dog?
A guard dog is typically aggressive, territorial, and limited to defending property. A family protection dog from AlpinHaus is obedient, emotionally stable, and trained to travel, socialize, and integrate with families—while still providing real-world defense.
