"I want my dog too go to a police force someday "

No one is mocking you like a child You are simply being asked a question which you did not answer in your other thread.
Most people on here are very willing to help, give advice which is what you asked for but for people to help you better they needed more information.
If you want to be taken seriously then you need to be transparent and let the people who have the knowledge ask you questions.

You're being extremely vague. How are people supposed to give you recommendations with "i want to import a czech dog" and "i want a police dog"?

You need to give more information. People are just asking you these questions so they can give you the best recommendations possible.

Most people do not import puppies as police prospects because there is a bit of a gamble doing that. I am not mocking; I do not know how to import - there are enough very good dogs over here to not have to do that.

FWIW, your odds of finding a black and tan Czech shepherd are fairly low. They do exist but the predominate Czech dog is a sable.

IF you've had gsd's all your life, what did you 'train' them to do?

And I still haven't seen an answer about the police training thing??

Are you a cop?? You want personal protection? still not getting what you mean by a dog to work "hard" for you..

We still don't know what you want to do with your dog. What directionwe point you in will depend on so many things: Your past experience, your present goals for yourself and the dog. Is this a dog you want to train for yourself in protection-like sports? or are you looking for a prospect to raise up for the police department? A lot of people have had shepherds their whole lives, but raising a pet dog with the temperament of a house pet is a completely different thing from raising a working, with the temperament to have be a police dog, with the end-goal of making it a police dog.

Here is a recommendation with a lot of open options for you:
German Shepherd Breeder | Police Dogs | Schutzhund | Washington USA | BC Canada

Suzanne is an active police officer who breeds police dogs that are being placed all over with police departments. She uses dogs of German and Czech background in her breedings and places puppies with individuals (with experience) to raise for her police puppy program.

Czech pups have to go to Frankfort to be shipped. $$$$ From Frankfort to Toronto cost me about $480 + cc upcharges + $140 in airport charges....depending on who is selling the pup can cost about $1500 US

Stibnene Kameho - artzlipin.cz - will probably have the type of dog you are looking for...there are some very sucessful dogs in the US from this kennel. I arranged for a board member here to get an A litter last year from Zico Adelegg and her Gringo Mohnwiese x Bemoan Bee daughter and he certainly would make a Police dog, even though he is being trained in the sport...more dog than the average owner should have tho.
