Core Training Values Developed to Ensure Excellence

Every CCU training course is developed with a Core Value System to ensure that all handlers and dogs leave fully trained and ready to apply what they learned.

Our CCU core values include:

  • Teaching a developed curriculum that is designed to optimize training time.
  • Providing a manual that contains the full details of the training material.

  • Offering a full warranty on our dog handler courses.

  • Thorough record keeping of each course to reduce liability.

  • Routine theory testing to ensure our students understand the material.
  • Practical exercises that test students in the field by identifying challenges in training.

Our Reliability Program Is Designed to Deliver Dependable Performance

Custom Canine Unlimited’s Reliability Program has been developed and refined over our many years of training teams in our Military Working Dog Training program. To enhance reliability, we target three core areas:

  • Dog Selection: We evaluate each canine thoroughly to select dogs best suited to perform specific operational tasks. The dog’s drive, temperament, breed, characteristics, and health are vital components of the selection process.

  • Dog Training: We set each dog up for success and test each MWD to uncover issues. Using a combination of science and experience, we customize Individual Training Plans to address challenging or unwanted behaviors and achieve desired outcomes.

  • Handler Training: Our accredited Military Working Dog Handler courses instill confidence and trust between handlers and their K9 partners. Each handler who undertakes CCU training is taught and tested in the skills required to succeed in the field.
