Dog Training at NMF Kennels

To enhance our methodical dog breeding program we aim at selling trained dogs — a complete package we provide you! NMF Kennels is fitted with a dedicated Dog Training Facility capable of supporting the training of dogs across three core disciplines: Obedience, Attack (including Poison Escape/Avoidance), and Agility.

These broad training programs are broken down into their many constituent and complementary modules. To guarantee consistent quality, NMF retains a qualified Dog Handler and a team of qualified K9 Instructors on-site at Kyankwanzi.

At different age milestones — 3 months, 7 months, and 1 year+ — we design appropriate training programs to match the growth and life stage of your dog. Additionally, our on-boarding residential facilities ensure your dog receives excellent boarding care while undergoing training.

Progression Roadmap

Introduction to basic obedience, leash manners, crate training, early socialisation, and positive reinforcement to build confidence and focus.

Stage 02

7 Months Old

Intermediate Working Modules

Off-leash compliance, agility obstacle courses, distraction proofing, extended recall, and poison escape/avoidance protocols.

Stage 03

1 Year +

Advanced Protection & Security

Commanded attack work, threat assessment, handler protection, bite-sleeve drills, and handler transition onboarding.

Specialised Module

Attack Dog Training

“The dog attacks because he has been commanded to — not out of fear or anger.”

The dog does not attack out of fear or anger; the dog attacks because he has been commanded to. Attack dog training, if carried out properly, is very useful in personal protection.

However, the dog should still use his own initiative if situations arise where the handler has been injured and cannot give a command. Our instructors train dogs to maintain control, release immediately on command, and execute poison escape/avoidance protocols.
