Meet the Business Owners

 

Eric & Nikole Gonzales

​​

Hi, I’m the founder of Tactical K9s, a prior law enforcement officer, dog trainer, youth coach, and lifelong student of discipline and behavior. My journey began in the field, where I worked with people in high-stress situations, where communication, trust, and structure made all the difference. That same approach is at the heart of how I train dogs, and more importantly, how I help their humans. This business isn’t just about obedience; it’s about creating calm, confident homes where dogs and owners understand each other. I bring a hands-on, real-world style rooted in behavioral science, jiu-jitsu, and mentorship. My wife plays a vital role in our work, guiding families through the process with warmth, patience, and insight. Together, we’ve made this more than a business. It’s our way of living. At Tactical K9s, you won’t find gimmicks, just proven structure, honest results, and people who care about helping you and your dog succeed. We’re here when you're ready.
