The place for all your dog's needs

Meet THE OWNER

Eric Katz

There were only two things in life my mother said I could never have, a motorcycle and a dog…

Well, fast forward years later and here I am with not only one but two dogs, Rico(left) & Bond(right). People thought I was crazy for raising a dog during college, some of the most important years of my life, but I knew it was the right decision and pushed through. My passion for dogs started as a hobby, but my entrepreneurial spirit moved me to turn it into a business. Along with my business classes, I enrolled in three service dog classes over two years and spent my summers being trained by my mentor, Joe Moldovan, who has over 50 years of experience working with dogs. With him, I learned how to train all types of dogs, from pet dogs to working dogs.I decided to take the plunge to expanded my knowledge and had the opportunity to train under Ivan Balabanov. He is arguably one of the greatest dog trainers of all time. I was very fortunate to be able to spend almost two weeks to learn from him and his concept of Training Without Conflict.

I have always wanted to give back in life and make an impact in this world, and now I am finally able to do that by bridging the gap between humans and dogs. I truly believe that any dog can learn to be a great member of the family with enough guidance and leadership. I look forward to helping you and your dogs!
