Our Approach

Traditional training techniques will not work on well bred, primitive instinctive show and performance dogs. Strong working lines are bred to perform a job, many times independent of humans. These are not simple companion dogs. We must be taught how to use their instincts to our advantage to become a working team.Learn how to establish a bond, solve the simplest to the most complex problems and learn how to communicate with the most stubborn headstrong dogs. Eric can mentor you and together create a team with a willingness to work for you in all areas and at any level of experience.
Stop duplicating what you see others doing it does not work! The testimonials page is filled with great accomplishments from beginners to pros. Many have stated that prior to these workshops nobody could fix the problems they had with their dog. Watch the video below to hear first hand from one of Eric's students. You an also see free training videos on the Official Eric Salas Training Channel on YouTube.

  • From Eric's Students

    "Eric Salas Workshops are like no other! While my dog and I are still beginners, we are set on the right path because of these workshops. Every lesson, every technique comes with a purpose to help you and your dog succeed. Not only that, but there are also plenty of opportunities to learn about your breed and apply that knowledge to your breeding program. And they are so much fun! I guarantee you these workshops are better than Disney World!"

  • From Eric's Students

    "True to how a great teach/trainer works, Eric didn’t just provide the answers to our questions - he helped us puzzle out our questions so that we could come up with the answers ourselves. I learned in one short extra session what some people may take years to figure out!"

  • From Eric's Students

    "I have attended three of the 7-day seminars with Eric, and I have learned new things each time! It is amazing how deep he dives into the "why" of dog structure elements and how the breeds were designed for different tasks. These are not passive training classes; he makes you do the research which is very valuable! Eric challenges you to be the best you can be! Your dog will love it! Your bond with your dog will grow! There is so much to learn from Eric and just not enough time!!!"

  • From Eric's Students

    "Eric Salas's one on one private classes are revolutionary. They have given me much more confidence to handle my dog in the ring. His individual sessions work like magic! I have learned how to keep my dog's "head straight" and have improved her free stack, ground stack, gait, and presentation. Mr. Salas has helped me become a better handler by improving my poise, posture, and communication with my dogs through hand signals and body language. I wouldn't be where I am without him. Eric Salas’s workshops have helped me and improved my handling tremendously in countless ways."

  • From Eric's Students

    "As a newcomer to the dog show world, I wasn’t happy with my results. I enrolled in several of Eric’s workshops and learned about show handling. His knowledge of animal behavior is unparalleled. I was a participant in his first Masterclass and that’s where it all clicked. I was taught to solve problems on my own and to enjoy the joy of training with my dog."

  • From Eric's Students

    "You have a dog that has a great potential, and you would like to show him by yourself? Look on the www.K9-World.com website for a workshop. Being part of this community is the best that can happen to you and your future Best In Show dog."

  • From Eric's Students

    "Eric Salas’ way of showing dogs is the contrary of everything I have learnt in the past years from different trainers. And this is what it makes both: a challenge for you and a pleasure for the dog. You must work against bad habits. You free the dog from pressure. You will have fun in the ring with your dog (again)."

  • From Eric's Students

    "After 50 years in the dog show sport and running a kennel with a grooming shop I thought I had seen everything for the upkeep and showing of dogs. That is until I met Eric Salas and the amazing products that he and the companies he works with. I am very proud to know a man who spends most of his time giving back to the sport by teaching anyone who asks and awed by the amazing tools and fantastic products he has come up with."

  • From Eric's Students

    "Through Eric’s workshops I have been able to train an extremely head strong dog to #1 Toy Fox Terrier. I love the fact that his training methods focus on building a strong connection, earning the trust & respect of your dog, and having fun! My favorite part of the 7-day training is the breed standard study. He teaches you to research your breed and learn more about it than ANYONE else. “Dig Deep! Chase rabbit holes! Ask Why?” To me, this information is invaluable in and out of the show ring! Thank you, Eric, for passing on your knowledge, love, and passion of dogs to others!"

  • From Eric's Students

    "Whether you are just beginning or a seasoned professional, Eric Salas can take you to the next level. I highly recommend him!"

  • From Eric's Students

    "Eric understands the handler/dog relationship from the dog's point of view and is able to explain to the handler how to get better performances from the dog. He teaches people how to "speak" to the dog in a language the dog can understand!"
We also encourage you to look for #EricSalasWorkshops on our Facebook and Instagram pages to see examples of Eric's students winning some of the most prestigious events worldwide in all facets of dog sports.
