Local rules and climate
Owning a protection dog in Washington
Washington is one of the few states with a law written for homes guarded by trained animals. Rules change: check the official source and your town or county.
- 1
Guarded premises must be registered
RCW 43.44.120 says premises guarded by animals professionally trained to defend the premises or the people in them must be registered with the local fire department, with approved signs at the front entrance of a residence. Ask your fire department how it applies to you.
- 2
Strict liability for bites
Under RCW 16.08.040 an owner is liable for damages when the dog bites someone in a public place or lawfully on private property, regardless of the dog's past behavior or the owner's knowledge of it.
- 3
Seattle licenses every dog
Seattle Municipal Code 9.25.050 requires all dogs to be licensed, and dogs must be on a leash in the city except in designated off-leash areas.

A mild climate for a double coat
At Seattle Tacoma airport the normal July high is 77.4°F and there are only about 3.8 days a year at or above 90°F. Western Washington is easy on a German Shepherd.
Rain, trails and long work trips
A protection dog for life around Puget Sound
If your work takes you away from home, a protection dog is there when you are not: calm in the house, alert at the door, steady with the children.
Life here is outdoors in every weather: trails, ferries, parks and lakes. A TYR dog has advanced off leash obedience for the places where that is allowed, and comes back to you the moment you call it.
Delivery and price
How delivery to Washington works
The handover happens at your home, so the dog learns your house and your neighborhood, and you learn the commands you will use every day.
From $20,000
Every dog is priced individually.
- The dog travels with one of our trainers, in about 15 days if it is ready, and the trainer stays at least 2 days for the handover.
- Hand delivery, the handover at your home and a health and training guarantee backed by a contract are included.

Questions
Protection dogs in Washington: your questions
Do I have to register a protection dog with the fire department?
Washington law (RCW 43.44.120) asks for it when premises are guarded by animals professionally trained to defend them or the people in them. Ask your local fire department how it applies to your home.
Do you deliver to eastern Washington too?
Yes. Spokane and the rest of the east side are covered, with the same handover at your home.
Is this page for Washington DC too?
This page covers Washington State. We also deliver to Washington DC and the rest of the country: see our page for the whole USA.
Is the rain a problem for the dog?
No. A German Shepherd's double coat sheds water, and our dogs are used to working outdoors in every weather.
