PFP Inc

Pets for Protection was founded in 1971 with a clear mission: to help dogs live happily alongside their families. It was founded by Rick Comstock, who recognized that countless dogs with good temperaments were losing their homes due to behavioral issues. From uncontrolled puppy exuberance to more serious aggression, these challenges were costing dogs their loved ones and even their lives. Rick saw a need not just for training these dogs, but also for educating their owners about the intricacies of canine behavior.

Pets for Protection aimed to bridge this gap, offering personalized solutions based on each dog's unique needs and personality. Rick's approach emphasizes a positive, common-sense method that prioritizes building a strong bond and understanding between dog and owner. Through its customized training programs, Pets for Protection empowers families to create a harmonious and lasting relationship with their canine companions.

Rick Comstock: A Lifetime Dedicated to Dogs

Rick Comstock has been training dogs for over 50 years, gaining unparalleled experience in a wide range of applications. He has worked with sentry and patrol dogs, special service dogs, sporting dogs, guide dogs, personal protection dogs, and, importantly, countless family pets. His extensive hands-on experience with thousands of dogs of all breeds - from common to rare - has given him a deep insight into the nuances of canine behavior.

Rick founded Pets for Protection to share his knowledge and passion for canine training, believing that every dog deserves a loving home and the opportunity to thrive. He firmly believes that it's never too late to modify a dog's behavior and strengthen the human-animal bond.
