AboutEric Byrd
Eric Byrd, is the National Channel Manager for Kinetic Performance Dog Food with a focus on Police/Military K9 teams across the country. Eric has been working closely with K9 teams for the past 8 years and has grown and developed relationships with multiple agencies and teams. Eric is an avid Quail Hunter and has been training English Pointers for 20+ years. He started his pursuit of dog food nutrition after experiencing issues in his kennel that were hard to explain (low energy, decreased stamina, long recovery periods and messy kennels). In his pursuit of answers to these issues, Eric discovered Kinetic Performance Dog Food after many discussions with manufacturers across the Pet Food industry. Immediately his kennel saw the results of what superior dog food nutrition can do and the many benefits the dogs experienced when the calorie/nutrient rich nutritional profile was being fed.
Eric then joined the Kinetic Team in 2021 and has traveled the country giving canine nutritional classes and seminars to Police K9 teams, Military K9 teams, and Bird Dog Field Trialers. His personal approach and experiences with dogs and their food weave together a nutritional class experience, that is both fun and informative giving each handler a better understanding about the Pet Food Industry and the ingredients they put into their K9’s.
