About Canine Protection International
Since 1994, Canine Protection International has built its reputation as the original family and estate protection dog company, placing fully trained protection dogs with private clients across the United States. CPI dogs are selected for stable temperament, real protection capability, and the ability to live naturally inside the home with children, guests, staff, and daily family routines. Each placement begins with a private consultation to understand the household, lifestyle, property, and level of protection needed before recommending the right dog. The result is not a traditional guard dog, but a composed, capable family protection dog that belongs in life it protects.

It's extremly hard to come up with words on how great of an experience our family had with CPI (Naked-Training). I found out about them through a friend who had worked with them almost ten years ago, and I have been witnessing the results his dog has shown ever since. We have a 4 children in our house, and my wife started to feel unsure of the control she had over our two year old American Bully. I feel so blessed that I knew about CPI, and what they are capable of doing. We drove from Omaha, Nebraska to drop our dog off because we knew this was the best place to take our dog. Life is so different with Leo(our dog) now. Even our four year old daughter is able be in full control of him at all times & all she needs is 3-4 words. No question about it, one of the best decisions we've ever made! We also lucked out with placing Leo in one of CPI's dog trainers house during his stay, & he was the BEST! We will be life long friends!! CPI is second to none! Jason Martinez
