Classes, Courses, Programs for all Levels
Custom Canine Unlimited develops K9 Classes, K9 courses, and working dog programs for the specific needs of our clients. We have amassed a lineup to meet the particular needs of law enforcement, the U.S. Military, U.S. Veterans, and Civilians. We aim to minimize downtime, maximize efficiency, and build reliability with each of our K9 Classes, K9 Courses, and working dog programs.
Since 2007, Custom Canine Unlimited has used the experience of our trainers, staff, and Subject matter experts to develop courses that meet the specific needs of law enforcement, the U.S. Military, U.S. Veterans, and Civilians. Our teams have worked with dogs in each area while we develop classes, courses, and programs. We never deliver training; we do not have personal experience.
Working and training in the K9 industry for over 20 years worldwide gives us the knowledge and experience necessary to build the best K9 Classes, K9 courses, and working dog programs worldwide. We use this experience and our extensive research and development to continue evolving. We closely monitor each element of every K9 Class, K9 course, and working dog program throughout its life. This system of oversite means we are constantly making adjustments to ensure we deliver with minimal downtime, maximum efficiency, and ultimate reliability.
