About David
Master Trainer, David Harris is the Founder and Head Trainer for Protection Dog Sales of America. In addition to thirty five years of hands on, practical experience, he attended Oklahoma State University, studying animal sciences, husbandry, animal psychology and veterinarian medicine. Having already launched a career in dog training, he augmented his education by attending West Virginia Canine College for a more rounded foundation of dog behavior and to broaden his canine sports experience. After graduation he held the position of Master Instructor at the college for two years before founding Canine Services Unlimited in 1988.
Many years later, David still believes in keeping up with and developing new skills and knowledge in the dog field. David feels that the key to any good trainer is listening to the owner and keeping abreast of new information to better enhance the dog/owner relationship. He has held positions as Head Trainer for several training clubs, and continues his own apprenticeship program to further educate the next generation of Master Trainers.
