Conclusion

This book is just a brief look at a subject so fascinating that many thousands of people the world over, speaking a dozen or more languages and belonging to a number of different cultures and ethnic groups, are devoted to it—the working dog.

We hope to have conveyed some information, certainly, to have given the reader a grasp of theory and technique. Most of all we hope that we have communicated our devotion to, interest in and respect for brave dogs. In a way a fine, brave dog is noble, and expresses in its behavior many of the ideals that we prize in human beings—courage, fidelity, spirit, vitality and trueness of self.

All of us could pick worse company.

The Schutzhund’s courage and power on the protection field arise from a steadiness of nerve. From this steadiness also arise even disposition, reliability and basic good nature. (Schutzhund III bitch with Landau children.)
