Ryan Gilbert began his dog training journey in 2021 after adopting his own dog and developing a deep interest in building a stronger, more meaningful relationship through training. What started as a personal endeavor quickly evolved into a passion for helping others understand the unique bond between dogs and humans. Ryan believes that one of the most rewarding aspects of training is teaching both the dog and handler to better understand each other, resulting in clearer communication and stronger connections.

Over the years, Ryan has expanded his expertise into scent detection training, where he has successfully titled his own dogs in scent work. He has also become a certified Mantrailing Global Instructor, further enhancing his ability to work with dogs in specialized disciplines. Known for his enthusiasm and dedication, Ryan especially enjoys seeing the excitement shared by both dog and owner when new behaviors are learned.

Ryan currently serves as a Trainer and Training Evaluator in the Greater Jacksonville, Florida area, where he continues to help dogs and their owners grow together through effective, relationship-based training.
