Welcoming Saul Garcia to UNITED K9

President of Canadian Ring Sport Association & Founder of K9 Educate

We are thrilled to welcome Saul Garcia, President of the Canadian Ring Sport Association, to UNITED K9 this September at ICAR Mirabel.

Saul’s journey in the dog world is nothing short of inspiring. From his early days in conformation with his uncle and grandfather to becoming a Certified Level 3 French Ring Decoy and a respected Police K9 and Personal Protection Dog Instructor, he has dedicated his life to advancing the art and science of working dog training. Over the years, he has competed in more than 30 French Ring trials, including making history as the first Canadian decoy invited to work the prestigious annual trial in St. Nabord, France. His expertise and influence extend across North America, where he has trained police dogs, worked with service animals, and developed dogs now serving with law enforcement, SWAT teams, and families who rely on their loyalty and protection.

At UNITED K9, Saul won’t just be competing with his K9 partner N’zo in the French Ring demonstrations — he’s also preparing some high-energy, action-packed surprises that will showcase why he is one of the most respected figures in the sport and working dog community. Those in attendance will have the rare chance to witness Saul’s unique blend of precision, intensity, and instinctive connection with dogs, live and in action.

UNITED K9 is about celebrating the very best in working dogs and their handlers, and Saul Garcia embodies that spirit. We couldn’t be prouder to have him and Enzo as part of this year’s lineup — get ready for a performance you won’t forget.
