CCPD uses different unique protection training methods. Our training methods are different from our competitors. They often treat protection training like a game.
In contrast, we train our dogs in defensive protection techniques from a young age. You do not consider your personal safety, or that of your family as a game, nor should your dog.
This is why we never use a towel, tug or sleeve when starting our puppies in bite development. We train our dogs to defend for the right reasons, much like a human bodyguard. From a young age, our dogs learn to spot behaviour that might be a threat. They will protect their family on command with strength and courage.
Equipment used to train our Protection dogs is designed and manufactured for our specific needs. We do not use shock collars, also known as E-collars, in our training. We train all our dogs with kind methods that boost their confidence instead of hurting their spirit. Only confident dogs suit this type of demanding work, and cruelty breaks their confidence and trust.
We do not use food as a reward. The only reward your dog needs to protect is the knowledge he is fulfilling his duty to your family. The strong, natural desire to please their handlers motivates our dogs.
As the owner, you in turn show your appreciation by providing a loving, stable environment for your protection dog. You do not need food or toy rewards because your family’s relationship with the dog is mutually beneficial.
Before diving into the selection process, it’s crucial to assess your personal and family needs. Consider your daily routine, the environment in which you live, and any specific security concerns you may have.
Are you looking for protection primarily at home, or do you need a dog that can accompany you on outings? Understanding these factors will help you identify the type of protection dog that will best suit your lifestyle.
