Jan. 1, 2010 - PRLog -- The availability of General purpose / specialist law enforcement dogs is in rapid decline around the World.

The good news is that Von Forell are able to help increase this declining availability…. simply by speaking to them they can enlighten you to a new innovative system that works.

Kris Kotsopoulos addressed this issue of a Global shortage in 1988 and therefore took the responsibility into his own hands. It has taken Kris years to fully understand what it takes to achieve such a program and the answer is ‘knowledge’.

Having traveled the world many times and having access to the best breeders and trainers, gave Kris the opportunity to gain first hand knowledge of the bloodlines, their character traits, their ancestors virtues and faults and what they produce in working drives and health.  

It’s relatively easy to breed undesirable results by not knowing which dogs to breed with for a sound long term breeding program. Unfortunately one can’t get this knowledge anywhere; there are no books or videos to teach you about gene pools as this is acquired through owing and training many dogs and through trail and error.

Von Forell has already made all the costly mistakes and it’s taken them many years to achieve the understanding the complexity of genetics.

They have been supplying Australian and International Government agencies for over 15 years with specifically bred canines for a variety of security purposes.  Agencies like the Australian Federal Police, Emergency Services Unit for the Victorian Prisons, Queensland Prisons, Queensland Police, N.S.W Police, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia.

Drives are not some mystic undetectable force which only good dogs have. Each and every dog is born with a set of drives, which by virtue of their genetics will have certain values for each drive. This situation is then further complicated as the dog's environment through the developmental period's impact on the refinement and even the practicality of the innate potential of the individual concerned.

The dog uses this period and events in its adult life to further refine the reactivity of this innate potential. Very good performing dogs are the ones which have been born with well developed drives, have had the drives enhanced and brought into balance through a stimulating environment and have learned through experience to make the best possible use of this innate potential through refinement of their inaction using the cognitive process.

NOTE: All our puppies under the Bio Sensor Stimulation.

Our challenge as working dog breeders over the past 29 years has always been:

1.   To produce sound dogs of a certain weight, size, and, or shape with a long term working life.

2.   Select dogs for training that have innate genetic qualities that can be enhanced, directed or channeled by ‘training’ (eg directed learning)

3.   Select dogs for breeding that have the above along with any genetic component for learning to learn (eg, the ability to recover – not anxious)

4.   Identify and capture the co varying helpful genes while leaving behind unhelpful co varying genes.

5.   Make decisions with incomplete knowledge and in a way that relies on physical manifestations of biological information – “BIOMARKERS”.

6.   Deploy dogs into changing circumstances and learning, environments and expect the dog to exhibit a range of plastic, but ‘adaptive’ responses

Von Forell has developed a subjective yet repeatable test, which measures the traits important for Working Dog Breeding and Training. These puppies’ parents undergo an intensive selection criterion. Only the most powerful animals are bred with to produce these high level dogs required for Law Enforcement.

Our working puppies come genetically gifted with the following traits.

High Retrieval.
Clear hips and Elbows.
High energy yet not hectic.
Strong and Solid Hard Grip.
Active Aggression.
Strong - Intense Prey drive.
High pain threshold.
Excellent recovery from stressful situation.
Balanced Drives.
Socially Confident.
Adaptability.

These are Selected Genetic Traits…

Having bred dogs for 29 years, Von Forell now are internationally recognized for success in isolating the traits required for specific types of work, e.g. Detection / Protection.

You can get a tremendous amount of information from there website, you can also see their dogs that have achieved results, such as; the Grand National Schutzhund Champion - Von Forell Vilco, the runner up - Von Forell Dores.
