About Saro - Saro Dog Training
Hi, I’m Saro.
For years, I’ve been helping frustrated dog owners transform their “stubborn” dogs into willing partners.
But I noticed a pattern: 50% of my most successful clients owned independent breeds—Beagles, Huskies, Jack Russell Terriers. Dogs that other trainers struggled with.
That’s when I realized these dogs aren’t stubborn. They’re independent. And they need a different approach.
So I created the Play & Praise Method™—a trust-based training approach that builds real connection without relying on treats or force.
Now I exclusively coach owners of stubborn, independent dogs who are tired of:
– Treat dependency (“my dog only listens when I have food”)
– Harsh methods that break trust
– Generic advice that doesn’t work for their breed
If you’re ready to finally understand your dog and build a real partnership, I’d love to help you.
