American Sentinel K9, LLC is licensed by the state of Mississippi in 2014 for dog training and boarding.H. Lee Robinson began his formal study of canine genetics and behavior back in 1990; and started his breeding program began in 2000. Today, American Sentinel LLC consistently proves their dogs in all three duties required by various bandogs throughout history, which are 1) sentry work, 2) protection work, & 3) hunting dangerous wild game."Bandog" is not a breed name, it is a job description that describes a catch dog that when released stops & controls criminals or dangerous beasts. The American Sentinel however is a modern breed that performs such tasks.If you need a high performance sentry dog, protection dog, or hunting catch dog, be sure to require proof that performance measures were used to evaluate the breeding stock. If a program refuses to provide such evidence of their own dogs performing said tasks for any reason, then I recommend you go elsewhere.
