Our Keynote Speaker:

Eric Stanbro is a retired police officer out of Canton, Ohio, with over 21 years in the K9 world—and he doesn’t do just theory, he does results. From the street to the seminar stage, Eric has built his reputation on producing dogs that perform under pressure. With more than 1,700 dogs trained through his e-collar program, his work speaks for itself: clear communication, real accountability, and dogs that actually listen when it matters. Eric trains both police K9 teams and pet dogs, bringing the same standard to both, because in his world, “good enough” isn’t good enough. His no-BS approach has made him one of the most sought-after e-collar educators in the country, traveling nationwide to teach trainers how to cut through the noise and get real, lasting results. He’s also a bestselling author on Amazon and co-host of Working Dog Radio, where raw conversations, hard truths, and real training take center stage.

If you’re looking for fluff, this isn’t it. If you’re ready to level up, you’re in the right place.
