Who we are...
Our Aim

Our highly experienced trainers are able to identify the qualities in each dog early to ensure that the best behaviours are developed and shaped. Our ultimate aim is to provide you with a well-balanced, confident and trustworthy dog.
Meet the Founders
Garry
Garry Lawrence is the owner of Ambassador Protection Dogs. He has kept German Shepherds for over thirty years but has a keen interest in a variety of breeds, and currently has seven different breeds of dog as pets. Garry has run successful businesses his entire adult life and brings business acumen to this venture.
“To combine my passion for dogs with my understanding of a successful business has been my ambition for many years. I have purchased dogs previously with no idea of their background. My vision has always been to be able to bridge the gap between owning a great dog together with the whole journey.”
Phillipa
Phillipa Lawrence has always had a keen interest in equine practices. Phillipa’s passion is now dogs due to the huge part dogs play in Garry’s life. For the past ten years, Phillippa and Garry have kept numerous dogs in their sprawling farmhouse premises in the Devonshire countryside.
“When I met Garry I was initially a bit anxious about big intimidating dogs. Since this venture has begun, I can see that with careful training, big dogs can be controlled, obedient and some of the most affectionate animals I have ever encountered. It’s so important to feel that my children are safe and we can enjoy being around the dogs we own and train. I also feel completely safe and protected when Garry has to go away on business.”
Trainers
get in touch
We use only positive and humane methods of training and believe that dogs will only train if they are happy and willing rather than forced.
