SWFL Positive Dog Training

Professional Dog Trainer | AKC Evaluator | Insured | Veteran Owned


Meet Your Trainer

Hello and welcome! My name is Ryan LaTant, and I’ve spent most of my life here in Florida, growing up with a deep love for dogs and the outdoors. As the founder of The Leash You Could Do, I combine my lifelong connection to the area with years of experience as a professional dog trainer to help local families build stronger bonds with their pets. After serving eight years as a U.S. Army medic, I returned home with a passion for purposeful work and found it in helping dogs thrive. I’m a fully insured trainer and an AKC Canine Good Citizen Evaluator. My training approach is positive, structured, and always tailored to your dog’s unique needs—making the process rewarding, respectful, and rooted in the community I proudly call home.

From basic manners to advanced public behavior, I offer both in-home and public sessions to help you build a better relationship with your dog.
