A career built in the field.
Eric has spent more than two decades training dogs of every breed, age, and temperament, from shy puppies to working-line shepherds to rescue dogs with serious behavioral history. His approach blends proven methods with the discipline of structured leadership.
As a National K9 Academy graduate and ISSA Certified Personal Trainer, he brings together two disciplines most trainers never combine: dog behavior and human performance. That is the foundation of programs like TOUGHDAWG WORKOUT and the proprietary Max Pack.

Philosophy
Exercise. Structure. Affection.
Principle
Exercise
A tired dog is a thinking dog. Real physical work creates the calm state where learning happens.
Principle
Structure
Clear rules and consistent leadership give dogs the confidence to relax and follow.
Principle
Affection
Earned, timed, and intentional. Affection becomes the strongest reward in your relationship.
The Approach
Owners train with their dogs, not from the sidelines.
Drop-off programs end the moment the dog goes home. Black Wolf Pro teaches both ends of the leash so the change holds in your living room, on your hikes, and at the front door when the UPS truck rolls up.
We work in active outdoor environments, build pack experience through real socialization, and develop the kind of shared language between you and your dog that creates a lifetime bond, not just a list of commands.
