Mission: Improve the welfare and well-being of breeder dogs by sponsoring a nationwide, voluntary program that ensures the health, well-being and quality of life of dogs in the care of breeders and provide the publc information as to appropriate canine breeding standards and sponsoring a breeder certification program.
Programs: Certification programto achieve these goals and objectives, the center sponsors a breeder certification program - canine care certified. This is the only program that measures the physical health and well-being of dogs and puppies as well as evaluates the behavioral and overall quality of life for dogs raised by breeders who have adopted the standards. Canine care certified certification provides independent verification that participating breeders meet or exceed the welfare standards set forth by the center. Certified breeders meeting these standards may use the canine care certified logo to show that they have successfully implemented and met the program standards. A certified breeder may authorize the use of the logo by their customers only to indicate that the certified breeder conforms to the ccw standards. The ccw certification program is a voluntary, user-fee-based service. Ccw controls the ownership, use and display of its certification mark canine care certified through the certification mark license agreement. The certification mark license agreement defines and documents ccw's legal rights to deal with incorrect references to the certification system or the misleading use of licenses, certificates or marks found in advertisements including a requirement for breeders to supply ccw with samples of the breeder's advertising, or promotional materials bearing the ccw mark upon ccw's request.
