Elite Registry of Working Dogs

The Elite Registry of Working Dogs (ERWD) was founded in 1987 by Douglas Ramsey on the premise that a dog with proper training has the potential to become enormously more than just a family pet or show dog.

Almost any dog will come, sit, and down before six months of age. However, getting a dog to settle down, focus, sit straight, and work in unison with the handler is another matter.

Completing Basic Obedience Modification is the foundation for any working dog team. It sets the tempo for a strong relationship. The ERWD Basic and ERWD Advanced (Off-Leash) classes prepare the dog and handler for ERWD trials and testing.
