We had a great experience with CCPD and Perry. The purchase of our dog was handled very professionally, and Perry provided very valuable information for us to prepare for our dog’s arrival. We are very happy with our new pup and she is a wonderful addition to our family.
Danny Calero | Seattle, Washington | Nov 21, 2021
I purchased an incredibly well trained, obedient, and affectionate puppy from Perry. I am truly impressed with his ability to raise and these dogs before they are introduced to their new families.
Daphanie Davis | Orlando, Florida | May 12, 2021
05.08.2021 We had a wonderful experience today with Josh and Julie from CC Protection Dogs. Josh introduced our daughter to her new college roommate, Falco. Josh patiently and professionally spent the time needed to transition Falco into our family. We left feeling confident in our decision choosing CC Protection Dogs and Falco. We followed the instructions Josh had given us. It was truly amazing. We sat back and were in awe watching Falco and our nineteen year old daughter bond. In less than twelve hours our daughter has found her new roommate when she returns to FSU! This could not have happened without the dedication of Perry and Josh! Our family is forever grateful.

Perry, just wanted to take a moment and thank you, again, for your time. Laura and I are very impressed with your passion for the dogs. Since early January, we have been blessed to welcome Arlo into our family. We are so excited about the amount of skill Arlo has at such an early age of 9 months. We look forward to building last memories with him. Take care, Greg & Laura

It has been exactly 30 days since we have received our dog from Perry and his team; however, we planned, researched, and waited patiently for our “trained young dog” for over a year and we couldn’t be more than pleased. Prior to receiving our dog, I researched companies and this breed for months as we have never had a Belgian Malinois. I’ll admit I was a little skeptic and hesitant, especially wiring money twice and even up until the point I finally got to meet Perry and our dog personally. Perry and his team have always been so responsive, informative; sending pictures and progress notes and videos ever since our dog was born. The weeks leading up to our “delivery date”, I had many questions and Perry was very patient. We literally flew and then drove across the country during a pandemic for four days to get back to California and our first two weeks were a “dynamic” adventure to say the least! The level of intelligence, training, and devotion this dog had (thanks to his training with CCProtectionDogs) instantly to my family and I was truly amazing.. He acted basically like a well trained service dog across the country and we literally had no issue in the numerous hotels we stayed at along the way. He crated well and endured the 8-10hr travel days like a pro. Overall, these past 30 days have been an adventure and we are so thrilled and wouldn’t trade him for the world. Sure, we may have lost some random kids toys here and there that perhaps got chewed up and he may have tried to eat wild donkey poop in 1.5 Milliseconds, but overall he is so incredibly intelligent, willing to work, and we love building on his training weekly with new commands and new challenges. We invested in a nationally certified professional dog trainer right now who comes to our home weekly right now to work with us and “our” handling and she is so impressed with him! She exclaimed he is so quickly graduating steps in her “program” and she loves how quickly he learns and responds. His list of understood words and commands has doubled in the past thirty days and we can’t wait to keep training him. Seeing my elementary aged kids become more confident in handling the dog has been such a fun family experience too. Overall, we are so thankful to Perry and will forever consider him to be “family” thanks to his team, his training & our dog. **Do not get this breed if you aren’t willing to put in work or be active. Trust me though, the reward for the whole family is worth it if you do. Feel free to message me on Instagram for any personal questions you may have. @k9_caimanjr_recon_malinois
Joyce Reynolds | Madrid, Spain | Aug 24, 2020
I researched many other protection dog providers, in doing so I found many protection dog providers purchase their dogs from others starting their training and relationships with these dogs later on in their lives. I chose Perry at CCPD because he raises his dogs from birth. The early relationship with the trainer and dog is key to me. CCPD provides years of experience, love and respect for their dogs that go back through multiple generations of breeding. Perry personally arrived with my dog, perfectly trained, responsive, and a well bred. It was equally important to me that the dog would integrate well into my family and life and she has! His recommendation was a perfect match for both my family and the dog. Abby’s is responsive, loving, well trained healthy, obedient dog and very eager to please. It did not take Abby long to adjust to her new surroundings. She stays by my side engaging in daily activities and is ready to protect me and my family at all times. Perry has reached out to me several times to check on mine and Abby’s training. He has made himself accessible to me whenever I have had questions and has been very responsive offering any guidance needed. I highly recommend CCPD!
Katie Mae Peters | Manhattan, New York | Jul 31, 2020
wanted a working breed to compete in skijor and canicross. When I settled on a Malinois, I chose Perry’s kennel because of high standard of breeding he upholds for his dogs. My Xola is incredibly smart and level headed. For a Malinois she’s also very calm when I ask her to be; from day one as a 10 week old puppy I was able to take her to restaurants and she would just calmly lay at my feet. I especially chose Perry because of the training they do with even the youngest pups. Xola came to me knowing how to sit and how to watch her handler for eye contact. I even took her to an assessment at 11 weeks for bite competition and the trainer there was impressed how at such a young age she silently went for the target and held on even through all the mondio distractions ie cans and steamers. While we haven’t done protection work training, Xo has already proven as a young pup to be very protective. While she loves people and has never been aggressive towards people we meet on walks, there have been two occasions where I (a small female) have been put walking with Xo when we’ve been approached by men giving unwanted attention. Without any sort of prompting, she’s picked up on my uneasiness and immediately switched into guard mode where she either sits or lays up against me leg and doesn’t let the unwanted person out of her sight - even going as far as to bark at them if they approach too close. Again she hasn’t had any protection training past what Perry did with her between 3-8 weeks, but at 3 months old, I already feel safer jogging with her by my side. This only comes from someone who knows how to properly breed dogs for appropriate temperament and focus. If you’re looking for a family dog with high energy (don’t get me wrong, she’s still a Malinois and requires diligent daily structure), chose Perry and the Command Control team. Their puppies are truly a class above the rest.
Sharon Kumagai | Long Beach, California| Jun 26, 2020
I have had dogs all my life but this Belgian Malinois puppy is by far the smartest dog I have ever seen. Strong, fast already and super focused on learning what you want from her. Perry was great, I have always had some kind of shepherd, from now on we will only get them here. We are beyond thrilledhim out for a walk People just stared some asked where he came from
The Hubbeller | San Antonio, California | Mar 1, 2020
These dogs are awesome my 1 year old great grand daughter would lay on the floor and use the dog for a pillow yet at the same time on command he would gently get up to protect his little girl. It’s all about trust The fun part was when the 4 year old took him out for a walk People just stared some asked where he came from

Diane Simpkins | Sudbury, Ontario | Dec 14, 2019
Perry has made puppy ownership an absolute pleasure. His promise of a smart dog who would be easy to train given the right environment and owners that are firm but fair has held true. Luna is a delight!! We are very impressed with his training. We drive over 2 hours to get to his training facility and feel that his patience, expertise, and approachability are worth the drive. We would highly recommend Perry to anyone wishing to own a well trained dog.
Allison Haldenby | Miami, Florida | Dec 9, 2019
Excellent experience in purchasing a pup from Perry. It is obvious that he puts a great deal of effort into breeding and raising high quality pups. He is knowledgeable and the years of experience Perry has working with and training high caliber dogs is clearly evident. Thanks Perry for a great new addition to our family!
Jaclyn Balabanian | Austin, Texas | Oct 12, 2019
Words cannot explain what an incredible dog we got from @ccprotectiondogs. She is so smart, calm, clear-headed, strong and obedient that it is shocking that she is only eight months old. But her incredible demeanor and physical abilities are a testament to the exceptional breeding and training that @ccprotectiondogs provides. Our family has never owned an animal, but we wanted a protection dog given that we own a rather large property. We were a bit anxious about taking the leap, especially because we have two young boys (5 and 6 years old) and lack experience with dogs. Nevertheless, after doing my research and speaking to many people, it became abundantly clear to me that Perry and @ccprotectiondogs are the superior choice when looking for a trained protection dog (or a puppy, given that the bloodlines they maintain are of the highest caliber). Perry is incredibly knowledgeable and beyond generous with his time. He immediately returned my phone calls and text messages, including at night and over the weekend, and he answered every question I had and proactively gave us advice based on his assessment of what we should be doing relative to the dog and how to raise her. And when we decided to purchase the dog, he got her to us as fast as possible based on our wishes and he continues to answer our questions. (Hence, this is not a business owner that just cuts off contact after making a sale. Perry cares about his customers and his dogs and it really shows.) Finally, the delivery couldn't have gone any better. The trainer, Josh, who came out with Cayman is a delightful person and a fantastic representative of @ccprotection dogs. We simply could not have had a better experience with him, so much so that we wanted him to stay for our family dinner and were sad (including Cayman) to see him go back home. He also answered all of our questions--when he couldn't, he got the answer from Perry--and was very focused on getting the dog acclimated to our family, and teaching us how to carry on with the training that she had been receiving. After he left, we felt totally comfortable with our new dog and confident that we understood what she needed to thrive. All in all, we could not be happier about our decision, and cannot believe how exceptional our new dog is. Thank you Perry and @ccprotectiondogs. For real, you are the best in the business!
Amanda Hills | Beverly Hills, California | Sep 26, 2019
We found Perry when looking for a protection dog for our family. We have young children and were very concerned about prior training and temperament when bringing a new, large, protection dog into our house. We spent considerable time figuring out the right solution and consider ourselves very lucky to have found Command Control Protection Dogs and our new German Shepherd. From the first time we spoke to Perry, we knew that we had found the right person. He is exceptionally knowledgeable and has an 18-year track record of breeding/training exceptional dogs. Unlike other breeders/trainers, all of his dogs are personally trained and raised by him and there is no hard sales push. He has been consistently very generous with his time – from prior to purchase, after purchase prior to delivery, and post-delivery. Our new dog has been amazing, and Perry has been very helpful in answering all our questions. Importantly for us, we knew from our conversations with Perry exactly what we would be getting from our six-month old dog – stable temperament, sociability, obedience training, protection training, crate training and house training. These characteristics and training have been invaluable. In addition, from Perry’s handler course, we knew exactly how to work with our new dog to maintain and continue his development. We highly recommend Command Control Protection Dogs and understand why his dogs are in such demand.

When I decided to get a Belgian Malinois, I did a lot of research on the breed. I spoke to numerous breeders, trainers and dog experts. They all pointed me to talk with Perry at C.C.P.D as the expert that I needed. Very glad that I did!! I emailed him and he responded back post haste. We spoke over the phone and Perry explained the process for the purchase as well as his training methodology which is very precise. Think of a fine swiss watch maker, only with dogs. I was nervous about wiring money, again glad that I did, or I would have missed out on what could possibly be the wisest purchase of my life. Perry took note of my concerns and desires and began to reach out to his many contacts in the dog world. After almost 20 years in the business he has a wealth of information at his fingertips. He found a dog, “Princess” who turned out to have quite a pedigree and relation to other fine dogs of this caliber. Princess is sweet, loving and calm. When we are together in public she is aware and obedient to her core. People fall in love with dogs. This relationship s different. Princess’s skill set allows her to be an even better companion in day to day issues. Having a canine with super-powers is even easier than I thought. She does all the work, I just hold the leash. I feel better, less anxious and even protected with her at my side in public. In private her skill-set applies to make her an even more loving companion. Perry is the best in the industry and Princess is the best dog. <3 <3 Brett M. Zambruk (Author of Children’s Books)

After losing our family companion of 9 years, our family was a bit apprehensive of bringing another dog home. Perry was extremely welcoming and knowledgeable about the pups. I'm glad that we were able to trust in someone who loves and cares about dogs as much as our family.

Our experience with CC Protection dogs has been very good. Our German shepherd pup is now 1.5 yrs old. She is beautiful, very sleek & dark in color. Perry has always been very prompt in answering my questions. We did 2 yrs of breeder research before choosing CC, did not want a puppy mill dog. The planned breeding for temperament was very important for our family. We needed a confident stable dog and we hit the jackpot with our pup. She is sweet with the grandkids and protective when stangers approach. Our veterinarian is also very impressed with her health and even commented on her beauty. We are very Happy customers. .

Paula Dupuy | Hamilton, Canada | September 9, 2017
I have been a veterinarian for 25 years and look after dogs at a CC Protection Dogs facility. Initially, I was reluctant to take on a protection dog breeder as a new client - I did have a bad experience previously with another company. However, CC Protection Dogs is now a favourite client! The facility is clean and well run and the staff are professional and easy to work with. But mostly it is the dogs that I love. They are well mannered and kind and they are brave for all veterinary treatments and care. Recently we had the honour of having a CC Malinois female in our hospital for a few days while she whelped her puppies. My staff fell in love and we were all sad to see the happy family go home. These dogs are exceptional in every way - a direct result of the breeding and training program at CC Protection Dogs.
Ron Rivers | Houston, Texas | Sep 8, 2017
Wife & I got a 6-month old Belgian Malinois in Dec '16. She is so smart, great disposition and very protective in our apartment, truck & office. Super dog and she observes everything, very confident and beautiful dog. We are thankful to have her.

Let me start off by saying I absolutely love my new elite executive estate protection dog Caiman. His personality is a perfect for match for my family. He is a well balanced and intelligent dog with a willingness to please and a drive to work. Perry and Brent delivered him and made the transition of ownership simple and seamless. They went above and beyond my expectations from the first phone call. They truely have a genuine passion for raising top notch protection dogs. We look forward to the delivery of our second dog Cabana in the upcoming months. Great work to ALL the staff at CC Protection Dogs.

We purchased a male 8 week old Belgian Malinois puppy and we are extremely happy. The temperament and confidence my dog shows is exceptional. We get comments all the time of how beautiful and calm he is and I know that it isn't all from our training. My experience with Perry was very positive. His passion for the breed and his dogs really shows. Perry was very quick to answer any and every question either through email or phone calls. We are already looking to get a pup or trained dog from the next breeding. I would encourage anybody looking for a Belgian Malinois to truly consider CC Protection Dogs.
Peter Dave | San Jose, California | Sep 3, 2017
My son and I bought a 3 yr old male Malnois from Perry and Brent and his review says it all....The impact that this animal has had on what I believe to be already a very strong n disciplined young man has been insurmountable. The dog has exceeded our expectations as a reflection of his trainers...This impact has been so positive I sent my 3 yr old German Shepard to be retrained by Perry as their training is second to none. He has been able to get out of Tuukka what I knew was in him when no other trainer could...This took time, patience n a deep down respect for these animals.....Simply said this is a company thst will except nothing but giving their clients the best !!!!
David Tebbe | Honolulu, Hawaii | Sep 3, 2017
if you're looking for the highest end protection dogs on the market, these are the guys you need to talk to. Their breeding and training program is second to none. I was amazed that they can breed/train dogs that are great pets but also amazing guard dogs. I would recommend these guys to anyone who is serious about getting the best for their home and family.
Laura Givens | Utah | Sep 2, 2017
Our experience with getting our new cc protection dog has been a journey well worth the while. We were looking for a great protection dog and spent several conversations with both Perry and Brent exploring and identifying our needs. They were patient in allowing me to ask all of my questions. I even flew up to meet a female that we were interested in. Brent and Robin were gracious hosts. However, after meeting us and further discussing our needs they made a recommendation for another dog that was an estate protection dog. We went back and forth and they addressed all our cocerns and shared videos of the dogs. In the end we compromised and got both! We just took delivery of the first one a week ago. Delivery was a great experience. Tyler, the decoy, was great. He did several real world scenarios with Brent talking me through it all. Your first experience is pretty overwhelming with the bite work. There is no doubt these dogs will protect when provoked! I will say that this last week has been a lifestyle change. These are working dogs and you have to "stick to the recipe." We work daily with our new dog. You have to be committed to learning your dog and getting him to perform and keep up all the skills he's learned. Brent and Robin have been very response to questions we've had or for feedback on training issues. They are there to support the customers and through the process become friends. We are looking forward to the arrival of our second dog in a few months!
Pete Davis | California | Sep 2, 2017
Purchased a 3 year old Belgian Malinois and could not be happier. The dogs temperament and drive is unbelievable. The situational awareness that their dogs have is something you can't miss; the communication that you will have with your dog will make you know that you have 100% control at all times while still having a great companion dog. With the training and attention that Command Control provides to their dogs is next to none, in my honest opinion. Their training philosophy is something I've never encountered before. After sticking to their program when I became the handler to my dog has built such a unique relationship because of the way they work their dogs . If you want a rock solid dog that you can trust with the protection of you and your family. Get in contact with CCPD. My dog only continues to get better and I have full trust that he will be there if the situation ever arises. Delivery of my dog was unbelievable as well. To have a company care so much about their dogs and clients to personally deliver your new dog to you, helped out so much. After I became the full handler of my dog I had all the information I needed because of what they provided.
