Hey guys! My name is Ryan and I am a certified K9 behavioral specialist here at Pet Paradise Bartram. My love for dogs brought me to Pet Paradise over 4 years ago. I have had the pleasure of working in may resorts around Jacksonville and many positions with in the resort. My favorite by far is K9 training, I have been through one-on-one training mentored under a master K9 trainer with Top Tier K9. My favorite thing about training is helping the dogs become their best selves and grow to their full potential. The most rewarding part of this position is watching the pawrents and their pups grow closer and stronger throughout the program.
