    Program details

    Our protection dogs are family dogs with an important job. They are trained to protect you when you need them. We offer protection dog training to dogs that we personally source for you or young dogs that pass our protection evaluation. Our protection program is highly selective and we only accept specific dogs into our program. Why? Not all dogs are created equal, certain breeds have a predisposition to do this job, while others do not. Protection training for dogs is a delicate balance between harnessing the dogs primal instincts and training them to use those instincts properly to protect you. With our approach our goal is to train your dog to do the work when its time to but have a perfect temperament at home and when there is no threat.

This place has been great since the moment I got my dog to 3 years after. Great people to work with, they really do care about my dog. My dog is very dog reactive, but they have helped both her and me to manage.

Complete Canine is an amazing dog training and boarding facility. Our lab puppy, Mickey, came back after a 3 week board & train like a different dog. Well behaved, listening to us, wanting to work on commands & we can see a good future with our pup now. Chris, the owner & trainers, in particular Zyri & Brett were dog whisperers! Patient, kind and consistent with Mickey & us during our learning session :) Take your dogs to Complete Canine, guarantee you will be as impressed as we are. Today we received a comprehensive email with a very helpful video of all we learned and how to navigate moving forward with our puppy. 🐶 Thank you to the CC team!

All the trainers are extremely knowledgeable, and they provided a strong foundation during the 2-week board and train that my dog was enrolled in. The follow up has been phenomenal with the take home lessons building upon the foundation while also incorporating new strategies. I would highly recommend them as they are compassionate, through and truly care as evident by the take home lessons that are available along with check in texts.

Complete Canine Training has trained and boarded several of my dogs, including pet dogs and working dogs. I am always so excited to pick up my pups after trips, they come back happy and healthy! The thing that set this place apart from others was that the owner has several certifications in dog training, and each trainer also comes to the table with their own expertise! My heart dog, is a pittie mix who started displaying aggression in her puppy months, and since her training she is MUCH more neutral to other dogs and people so I can actually bring her out with me, after years of being too afraid to. I got to learn a lot about balanced training in our take home session, and also how to properly work with communication tools (prong collar) to ensure my pups safety, and mine! The trainers took time to see which tool was best for her, we tried a e-collar first but it shut her down and so they never brought it up again! Also as an added bonus, they offer lifetime support, so I truly feel like they have me (and my babies!) back.
