The Method Dog Training

09/29/2026

Eric Naus has been a continued supporter of The Method Dog Training and has truly put in the hours, miles, and work to continue learning.

Traveling from Canada to attend every seminar we have hosted, Eric has shown a level of commitment that goes far beyond simply attending a seminar. He has spent more than 20 years studying dogs, mentoring with Sonny and despite his experience and success, he continues to approach the game as a student. He has given valuable feedback to keep better shaping the presentation of our seminars and continues to challenge the learning format for the better.

Eric has had tremendous success training his own dogs and competing with them at a high level. But what stands out most is his willingness to keep learning, keep challenging himself, and continue developing alongside his dogs.

Experience matters. Accomplishment matters. But remaining a student of the game is what keeps you moving forward.

We thank Eric for his continued support! 🙏

For more than 20 years, Sonny Piekarz and George Lyall have shared a friendship built around dogs, training, learning, and a constant desire to become better.

George brought more than friendship to that relationship. With over 30 years of experience working with dogs, he brought a depth of knowledge and perspective that has been incredibly valuable to both Sonny and Jordan.

Over the years, they’ve spent countless hours talking dogs, challenging ideas, watching dogs, and learning from each other. That relationship eventually became a big part of the foundation of The Method.

When Sonny called George and told him about the idea he and Jordan were developing, George didn’t hesitate, he was all in.

George’s influence on The Method has gone far beyond simply being involved. His 30-plus years of working dogs have given him the experience to ask the right questions, challenge ideas, recognize what works, and help turn concepts into something that could be taught and understood by others.

He’s also been instrumental in helping take The Method from an idea shared between friends and trainers and bring it to the public level. His experience, perspective, and belief in what Sonny and Jordan were building helped give The Method another layer of credibility and direction.

The Method is the product of many years, many dogs, and many conversations, but George has played a major role in helping shape it and bring it to people outside of our own kennels.

This picture represents more than two trainers and a dog.

It represents 20+ years of friendship, 30+ years of dog experience, shared knowledge, trust, and a commitment to never stop learning.

And it all started with one phone call:

“George, I’ve got an idea…”

George’s answer was simple:

“I’m in.”

“I once sat in those seats.

I remember sitting in an audience just like this, absorbing as much information as I possibly could. I studied it. I listened. I asked questions. I surrounded myself with people who were better than me and tried to learn everything I could from them.

I wasn’t raised as a dog trainer. I didn’t grow up knowing how to do it. I became a student of it.

And the truth is, I’ll always be a student of it.

Now, having the opportunity to stand on the other side of the room and share what I’ve learned is something I never take for granted.

Never stop being a student.”

Huge shoutout to Jerry Imprevento with Jerry/Field Dog Imagery .

To say he knocked it out of the park would be an understatement. Jerry showed up on short notice, put in the work, and captured this seminar in a way that took the entire event to another level.

The photos speak for themselves—but what they don’t show is the time, effort, and heart he put in behind the camera.

Jerry, thank you for making the journey, rolling with us, and capturing moments we’ll get to look back on for years to come.

From The Method team and every person who attended the seminar—we appreciate the hell out of you.

You didn’t just document the event. You became a part of it.
