About
I train people not dogs. It's mostly understanding how a dog thinks and what triggers their behavior. Like any relationship, once there is good communication most situations can be fixed. I love dogs, and i always want to see dogs and owners have that special bond.

Eric is awesome-- very friendly, patient and accommodating with our family's needs and schedule for training. I promise he's like some super, guru, dog whisperer... I could not have survived the puppy phase without him. Highly recommend.

Eric is a GREAT trainer, he's very understanding, and caring, genuinely, to BOTH, your pet and you. He is down to earth, good sense of humor. He has been with us, 2 times so far, and honestly, he TOTALLY taught our boxer so much, ( US AS WELL) in the first session.. We do our homework/ practice with our Hennessey, and she is doing AMAZING!! I will keep him around for as long as possible, and recommend him...to EVERYONE!! 110%.. The Andersons

He is doing an amazing job teaching me and my dog. My dog had a traumatic experience when she was 3.5 months old and that experience had made her scared since. Eric is helping me more than her and with continued training we will both have the knowledge for a trusting respectful relationship that will enable my dog to be a K9 Good Citizen. We have already done two training sessions and what a difference already. Eric is worth his weight in gold. I recommend him highly. He is knowledgable and has such a calm, confident demeniour that transfers through this training. He trains both, the handler and the dog. A+!

FAQs

  • What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

    I like to spend some time getting to know them and their dog. Once I understand their relationship then I can explain how we will train. It's important for the owner to feel comfortable with not only me but the training process. I want them to understand that they have to put in the work but the rewards are for a lifetime.

  • What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

    When hiring a dog trainer I feel it's important that the trainer's style match the beliefs of the owner. There are many types of effective dog training and one is not better than the other, just a better fit in my opinion. Its good for the owner to ask a lot of questions?
