Beyond the basics of training good manners, there are breeds that require further consideration. These are often breeds which were bred to serve and work for man. Due to this reason for DOMESTICATION these breeds were specifically bred with certain drives and instincts to perform specialized tasks. This type of dog has a biological need and/or initiate impulse to stimuli that makes behavior and response predictable... reason for DOMESTICATION. These dogs love to learn and interact instinctively to the world and those around by this unique genetic predisposition. They deserve to share their life with a handler that enjoys these qualities and attributes. Unfortunately when the needs of these dogs are not met, these drives and impulses develop into behaviors people find difficult to live with or don't know how to cultivate them into a productive manner.

John Soares has made a name for himself by working with such dogs. John brings his experience, knowledge and success to you. He has lived as a trainer in both the United States and in Europe -training trainers, competing with different breeds and proving that his methods work for everyone.

ACHIEVEMENTS A commitment that few have been able to accomplish. John Soares has earned the highest honors at regional levels, national levels and at world championship levels.

Throughout his career John Soares has offered comprehensive programs to handlers in theory and practical areas at the highest levels of training. He has been published on topics such as drives and instincts, process of domestication, dog sports, Schutzhund/IPO, French Ring, dog training techniques etc...

Considered by many to be on the forefront of alternative training techniques, John Soares openly shares his training skills and experience. Whether your goal is to compete locally, at a regional level, national level, international level or solely for the purpose of enjoying and interacting with your k-9, let someone who has the experience, knowledge and the reputation at these levels educate you and your k-9 partner.

    Review of Dog Training with John, June 10, 2009

    John worked with our rambunctious, headstrong, young Doberman and made an amazing difference. When we went back for a second round of training, off-leash this time, our Bella was so excited to be there. That spoke volumes about his relationship with the dogs he trains. Bella's personality remained the same (playful and always happy) but her behavior and response to commands was dramatically better. The owner of the doggie play school she attends was very impressed with the change.
    His sessions include training the owners as well! We cannot recommend him strongly enough!!
