How We Choose Our Personal Protection Dogs for Sale in Lubbock, TX
The first requirement for any dog we deem worthy of our protection canine program is that it must be bred to be a working dog.
Working Dogs 101
In the United States, the term "K9" has become the standard way to refer to working dogs. This abbreviation originated from police departments that started using "K9" to describe their police dogs, with K9 simply being a shorthand version of the word "canine," which refers to the family of animals that includes all dogs. As a result, K9 has become a common term for working police dogs.
But what exactly is a working dog? There are several types of working dogs. For instance, dogs that assist with hunting are considered working dogs, as well as those that are trained to pull carts to market. Generally, when we talk about working dogs, we refer to dogs that perform important tasks in police and military settings.
Our Family Protection Dog Selection Process
We select mature dogs aged 1.5 to 2.0 years, ideally with some basic training in working dog sports like KNPV, Schutzhund/IGP, or Mondioring. This allows us to assess their working character, training, health, and suitability for your needs.
After selection, we focus on training the dogs to meet our customers' specific requirements. These dogs must maintain a high level of obedience while also being prepared to respond to potential threats on command. Often, we train them to use a "hold and bark" technique, where the dog barks to warn of a threat when the owner gives a guard command. The dog will only bite if the person attacks or approaches the owner.
Our personal protection dogs can be trained and sold anywhere in the USA. Clients often refer their friends and family members to K9 Technology because:
- We Utilize an Effective Four-Step Selling Process
- Every Do is Selected to Meet Your Unique Needs
- Every Family Protection Dog is Trained with Your Family in Mind
- We Select Dogs from the Best Breeders in the World
- Exclusive Training from Professional Protection Dog Trainers
Family Protection Dogs for Sale in Lubbock, TX Tailored to Your Needs
While there are certain essential traits that all K9 dogs we select must have, we also take into account the unique needs and preferences of each customer. We start that process by conducting a thorough interview to understand your situation and engage with each adult family member. We then visit your home and property, paying close attention to your living arrangements and specific circumstances. We'll ask you questions such as:
- Do you have children and their ages?
- Do you prefer the dog(s) to live inside or outside the house?
- Do you want a family dog that will spend time with you and your family or a protection dog that would focus on its primary task?
- Do you need a protection dog that you can take with you outside your property to provide protection?
- What are your security concerns, and what are the security risks you seek protection from?
- How large is your property, and what is the local weather?
The Importance of Dog Traits
Dogs, even those of the same breed and from the same litter, can have very different personalities. Some dogs are naturally more family-oriented and exhibit patience around small children, while others may not have that same temperament. Certain dogs are highly energetic and may not be suitable for living indoors with someone who lacks experience in handling working dogs.
Some dogs also possess strong prey and defensive instincts, showcasing a higher degree of aggression that can be valuable for addressing potential intruders. Conversely, there are also dogs that are more balanced and easygoing, yet still fully capable of dealing with your average criminal threat.
Selecting the right personal protection dog for your needs takes many years of experience and knowledge of dog behavior. That's why, at K9 Technology, we've assembled a world-class team for exactly this purpose.
Top 3 Family Protection Dogs for Sale in Lubbock, TX
At K9 Technology, one of the most common questions we get often revolves around what the best K9 protection dogs are. That's a difficult question to answer because every breed is different, and every family and individual will have different needs and goals with their protection dog. However, generally speaking, working dogs like the following breeds are often the best.
German Shepards
German Shepherds are commonly chosen to work alongside police officers for a good reason. They are courageous animals, displaying both confidence and boldness. Their high intelligence and ability to learn commands quickly make them a popular choice among individuals and families. When they join a household, they tend to have a calm demeanor and are very affectionate. However, don't be fooled; if their home is threatened, they will respond swiftly to protect their loved ones.
Belgian Malinois
The Belgian Malinois is a highly energetic breed that possesses the strength and vigor of a large dog, all while maintaining a lighter frame. Similar to Dobermans, Malinois are exceptionally intelligent and alert. Like many protective breeds, they require regular physical activity and mental challenges to truly thrive.
Dutch Shepherds
If you're looking for a versatile and highly intelligent protection dog, the Dutch Shepherd is an outstanding choice. Originally developed in the Netherlands for herding and guarding duties, this breed is known for its incredible work ethic, adaptability, and loyalty. Dutch Shepherds are extremely trainable, making them ideal for both personal and family protection.
The K9 Technology Difference
Investing in one or more K9 protection dogs for sale in Lubbock, TX, is a significant decision for you and your family. You're not just bringing home a new family member; you're also gaining a crucial ally who can help safeguard your lives. At K9 Technology, we prioritize the selection and seamless integration of this dog into your home, ensuring a smooth transition and a strong bond with your loved ones.
Our Selling Process Explained
Our four-step selling process is very thorough and is tailored to your needs, schedule, and family life. It includes:
Meet - Let's Get to Know Each Other
When our customers reach out, our first priority is to understand their security concerns. We want to know why you're considering a personal protection dog and what experiences led you here. Are you worried about being assaulted and sent to The Legacy at South Plains near Lubbock, TX? Are you looking for a loyal companion to protect your family? Do you expect the dog to guard you at home, at work, while traveling, or all of the above?
Next, it's crucial to understand your lifestyle. Are you active? Do you have young children? Are you often on the go, and do you live in an urban, suburban, or rural setting? We also want to know your preferences for the personal protection dog (PPD). While some clients care less about appearance, others have specific ideas about size, coat type, and ear shape. It's important that you and your family feel comfortable with your new .
As we learn about you, we make it a point to be transparent about our philosophy. We aim to present the facts clearly to avoid any unrealistic expectations.
Search - We Find the Perfect Family Protection Dog for You
Once we get comfortable with each other, we can begin the search for a personal protection dog. While there might be one available immediately, this is quite rare. Keep in mind that no company can offer a wide variety of sizes, looks, and training levels. Be wary of vendors claiming otherwise, as those with large inventories often focus on selling what they have rather than what you truly need.
At K9 Technology, we tap into an extensive network of top kennels and trainers in the US and Europe. If we don't have a suitable dog available, we'll reach out within our network to find the right match for you
Train - K9 Technology Trains Your Personal Protection Dog
We typically select dogs aged 1.5 to 3 years with some basic training, ensuring they have the necessary obedience and drive. Each dog, even the best trained, undergoes a thorough evaluation and training period with our staff, which can last from 1 to 5 months. We assess what additional training is needed to meet your specific requirements.
Once our trainers are confident in the protection dog's skills, we place the dog with a staff member for a final evaluation, handling it as you would. When we believe the dog is ready for your home, we proceed to the next essential phase of our process.
Delivery - Enjoy Life with Enhanced Peace of Mind
This training course typically lasts from three days to over a week, depending on your experience and comfort level. You will practice real-life scenarios to learn how to instruct your dog to protect you. Throughout this process, we will spend time in your community and accompany you to ensure you feel comfortable taking on the role of handler with your new dog.
Remember, you are not just getting a pet; you are welcoming a trained working dog into your home. We will make sure you understand the basics of handling a working dog, including issuing commands and managing challenging situations.
For those with dog handling experience, we offer less guidance, while beginners receive the support they need to feel confident. We provide essential supplies, including leashes, collars, crates, and enough food and supplements for the first few weeks. We also assist you in finding local veterinarians and health professionals to keep your dog healthy
We visit the homes of all our customers to ensure everything is ready for their new family member. This visit may take place before introducing the dog or be combined with the introduction itself, depending on your preferences.
K9 Technology: Safety and Security Epitomized
At K9 Technology, your safety is our top priority. That's why we are committed to offering our dogs at the most affordable prices-because everyone deserves protection. We take pride in tailoring each dog to meet the unique needs and lifestyles of our clients, ensuring a perfect match every time.

NWS confirms 8 tornadoes struck in Lubbock County, around West Texas in early June 2025

Lubbock Avalanche-Journal
A week after dark storm clouds and tornado sirens sent residents of West Texas and Lubbock County to storm shelters, the National Weather Service has published its findings from the night of June 5, 2025.
A report from the NWS in Lubbock identified eight tornadoes that struck during the course of the severe weather events that damaged property, flooded roads and left thousands without power.
However, the NWS reports that the evening storms were foreshadowed by a storm earlier in the morning.
Early morning storms forewarn of tornadic events
According to NWS, the storms that impacted the South Plains the evening of June 5 began hours earlier in northern New Mexico.
"The early morning hours started with a complex of thunderstorms, storms that originated in northern New Mexico the previous day, tracking across the southern Texas Panhandle," read the NWS report. "Despite being well past sunset, rich moisture contributed to strong instability that allowed this activity to remain intense well into the overnight hours."
The early morning storm system produced an intense thunderstorm that moved into Swisher County.
The NWS reports that it had produced damaging winds and large hail that downed power lines on FM 1425 about 9 miles southwest of Happy, Texas, rendering it impassable.
The storm marched on to Tulia with golf-ball-sized hail, knocking out several windows and damaging vegetation. At 12:23 a.m., NWS reported measuring a wind gust of 81 mph.
The storm started weakening just after that, but not before giving an ominous warning.
"The late-night storms also provided foreshadowing for what the atmosphere would be capable of later in the day," read the NWS report.
8 tornadoes strike in and around Lubbock County, West Texas
A mixture of warm front air and cold air high in the sky, with humidity, were the ingredients needed for a disastrous recipe for "explosive storm development" to occur in far east-central New Mexico.
The NWS reported that an added strong wind shear, "as a result of both the change in direction and increase in speed with height, caused the thunderstorms to quickly organize."
The storm produced its first tornado at 5:15 p.m. in open land west of Lingo, New Mexico, and crossed the New Mexico-Texas state line into Cochran County.
Story continues after the gallery.
That tornado was confirmed by storm spotters and was given an EF Unknown (EF-U) rating.
According to NWS, the storm produced a second tornado at 5:30 p.m. — this time an EF-2 wedge tornado — in Cochran County northwest of Morton, which destroyed multiple large wooden power poles.
The tornado tracked eastward, eventually crossing TX-214 about four miles north of Morton before dissipating over northeastern Cochran County.
Five minutes after dissipating, a third and fourth tornado — both rated EF-U — were reported to strike five miles northwest and two miles north of Pettit, respectively.
The supercell began to track more southeastward, with NWS reporting no tornadoes being observed for around 15 minutes.
The fifth — an EF 2 — was reported to have touched down at 6:27 p.m., three miles south of the community of Whitharral in Hockley County.
"This tornado destroyed several additional wooden power poles, rolled a semi-truck traveling on the highway, and damaged buildings and trees along its path before it dissipated about seven miles east of US-385," read the NWS report.
The sixth tornado — ranked an EF-1 — started at 7:12 p.m., north of Smyer and lasted 12 minutes, causing two injuries.
The seventh tornado — an EF-2 tornado — also started at 7:19 p.m. near where the sixth tornado had let up, "and damaged or destroyed several homes and buildings as it tracked southeastward" into Reese Center in Lubbock County.
The final touchdown started at 7:43 p.m. in the west-northwest of Reese Center.
"The survey team found tree and roof damage consistent with EF-0 to EF-1 damage across Reese Center," reads the NWS report.
Hail, strong winds damages Wolfforth and Lubbock
While the threat of a tornado may have ended, a swath of thunderstorm outflow winds and hail measured up to 2.5 inches in diameter swept across western and southwestern Lubbock.
According the NWS, the survey team "found roof and tree damage across West Lubbock, maximized along and north of Highway 114, consistent with maximum wind gusts up to 115 mph."
"Broken windows, skylights and additional tree damage was reported as far south as Wolfforth and east into central Lubbock, with the eastern bound of reports around Avenue Q. Maximum wind gusts from West Texas Mesonet stations in the area were 80 mph," reads the NWS report.

LUBBOCK, TX (NEWS RELEASE) - During the afternoon and evening hours of Thursday, June 5, 2025, an intense supercell thunderstorm moved over the South Plains region of West Texas, producing several tornadoes over portions of Cochran, Hockley, and Lubbock Counties.
This thunderstorm also produced widespread damage from very strong straight-line winds and large hail across western and southwestern portions of the City of Lubbock before it exited into Crosby and Garza Counties and weakened late in the evening. NWS Lubbock deployed three separate teams to survey the damage from this thunderstorm, with the combined results of these surveys documented in detail below.
This supercell initially produced a brief tornado over far northwestern Cochran County that moved over open country and produced no known damage. Shortly thereafter, the supercell produced a strong wedge- type tornado several miles northwest of Morton, which destroyed multiple large wooden power poles as it tracked eastward, eventually crossing TX-214 about 4 miles north of Morton before dissipating over northeastern Cochran County. The supercell then produced another strong tornado over far northwestern Hockley County, about 5 miles northwest of the community of Pettit, which was directly observed by mobile research radar. A separate and very brief cone-type tornado was then observed only about 2 miles north of Pettit.
The supercell then began to track more southeastward, with no tornadoes observed for a period of approximately 15 minutes. Just as the supercell approached US-385 in north-central Hockley County, it produced another strong tornado which crossed US-385 about 3 miles south of the community of Whitharral. This tornado destroyed several additional wooden power poles, rolled a semi-truck traveling on the highway, and damaged buildings and trees along its path before it dissipated about 7 miles east of US-385.
The final three tornadoes produced by this supercell were observed as the storm crossed from eastern Hockley County into western Lubbock County. The first tornado developed approximately 3 miles northeast of TX-114 and the community of Smyer, damaging or destroying multiple manufactured homes as it moved eastward before it dissipated along the Hockley/Lubbock County line. The second tornado developed very close to the termination of the previous tornado, and damaged or destroyed several homes and buildings as it tracked southeastward and dissipated only about a quarter mile north of TX-114. The final tornado produced during this event developed and tracked over southern portions of Reese Center, toppling large trees and damaging roofs before dissipating just outside the Lubbock city limits.
Although the storm did not produce any additional tornadoes after this point, the supercell did continue to produce very strong straight-line winds and large hail, which resulted in widespread damage to homes and businesses across western and southwestern portions of the City of Lubbock. Many buildings within the city experienced significant damage to roofs and windows, and hail up to the size of tennis balls was observed within the city limits. The supercell continued to produce large hail and severe wind gusts as it moved over the community of Slaton in southeastern Lubbock County, with the storm finally weakening over Crosby and Garza Counties with no additional severe weather reports received after it moved to the east of the Caprock Escarpment.

LUBBOCK, Texas (KCBD) - A Lubbock businessman named in multiple lawsuits appeared in the 72nd District Court on Monday.
Trial began at 9 a.m. for Joshua Allen, who Lubbock investors have accused of securities fraud and a breach of fiduciary duties as part of a lawsuit related to the expansion of the Walk-On’s Sports Bistreaux franchise.
The two businessmen claim they gave Allen hundreds of thousands of dollars and lost it all. Chance Britt testified he invested $600,000.
In a previous interview, Britt told the KCBD Investigates Team he eventually had to file for bankruptcy.

“We never saw a distribution. In fact, we never saw financials on any of it,” Britt said. “Bankruptcy was the hardest thing we have had to do as a family. It was very trying. It is a sense of pride thing because we had done well up until that point.”
Plaintiff Tait Crow told us he invested $150,000.
“Did not receive a dime,” Crow said in a previous interview.
The Walk-On’s in Amarillo did open, but the locations in El Paso never did.
On Monday, Allen’s attorney, Nick Olguin, argued the Amarillo location struggled, especially during COVID, and said Allen lost money, too.
After hours of testimony, there were still questions about where the investors’ money ended up.
Plaintiffs’ attorney Ed Price told the judge his team still does not have what it needs in this case, partially because Allen has been hard to access.
“We noticed him for deposition out of the Michael Cox bankruptcy, but we gave him notice that we were also going to ask him questions about this case, but he simply didn’t show up. There was also mediation scheduled in March of this year in this case, and again he didn’t show up,” Price said.
Allen did appear for a deposition as part of a separate class action lawsuit.
Price is helping to represent dozens of plaintiffs in that case who have accused Allen, his business partner Michael Cox, and others of operating a multi-million dollar Ponzi scheme.

Price wants the judge to read and consider portions of Allen’s deposition taken in that case.
“In that deposition, he invoked his Fifth Amendment privilege 541 times. The law in the State of Texas and under the federal law is that you can make an adverse inference from that if he could have answered the question affirmatively, then he would have. We think that is going to help our case,” Price said.
Olguin, who declined to comment at this time, argued that the case is not relevant.

Both sides will file briefs with the judge to make their arguments heard before he issues a ruling in this case. The attorneys have about three weeks to file those briefs and responses before the judge will issue a ruling.
We will let you know what happens.
We did notice plaintiffs in the class action lawsuit in the courtroom on Monday. They are not involved in this case in any way, but we are told they are closely monitoring all of the cases involving Allen.

We have also learned that one of the defendants in the class action lawsuit, Collins Asset Group, filed for bankruptcy.
Price said he is not surprised.
“We think that could be an advantage because now they are going to have to produce all sorts of documents to the trustees office. We think that may be a plus,” Price said.
A court date has not been set in that case.

Lubbock was in for a wild night as it faced the threat of tornadoes and heard tornado sirens sound across the city. But after the scare, Lubbock and Texas Tech Red Raider fans heard a more comforting and familiar sound — the Victory Bells.
Texas Tech softball defeated the Texas Longhorns 4-3 in Game 2 of the Women's College World Series in Oklahoma City, sending both teams into a winner-take-all Game 3 Friday.
This win prompted Red Raider fans and alumni to take to social media to rally behind the scarlet and black.
It even prompted former Texas Tech Athletics alums to give a shout-out to the rising star team, such as NFL Kansas City Chiefs star quarterback Patrick Mahomes II.
Mahomes was also spotted at the ballpark in full support of the Red Raiders.
While the debate is still out on whether sports and politics should mix, several politicians showed their full partisan support for the team from West Texas.
But putting politics and the sting from losing Game 1 aside, Red Raider Nation was ecstatic to see the Red Raiders succeed.
The Red Raiders and Longhorns will play for a final time on Friday, June 6, at 7 p.m. CST to decide the winner of the WCWS.
