MEET EDDIE GUADALUPE

Dog Trainer Eddie Guadalupe got his first dog when he was 6 years old. Since then, he has trained every dog he’s owned, plus the dogs of his friends and family.

In 2009, Eddie was introduced to Michael Ellis, an internationally renowned dog trainer. He began consuming all of Ellis’s content and training videos and practicing the training techniques he learned with every dog he met.

Three years later, Eddie’s mother was diagnosed with cancer and passed away 6 months later. During their last few months together, Eddie’s conversations with his mother inspired him to pursue his dreams. He knew the best way he could honor his mother was by spending his time doing something he was deeply passionate about.

Eddie’s mom gave him his own German Shepherds when he was just 6 years old. His mother had a German Shepherd named Blackie when she was just a girl and told him many stories about her dog.  Growing up, Eddie’s house was filled with German shepherds, Basset Hounds, Sheep dog, and poodles. Eddie’s passion for dogs has been passed down from his mom. He knew that he was meant to pursue his dream of attending Michael Ellis School for Dog Trainers.  Eddie attended M.E.S. in 2016 and started River Wolf K9 in Glassboro, New Jersey a year later.
