Dylan Godard
Dylan’s journey into dog training started when he struggled with his own dog’s behavioural issues, and his determination to find a solution sparked a passion that’s driven his career for over 10 years. What began as a personal challenge evolved into a mission to understand and connect with dogs on a deeper level—and to help others do the same.
Before founding Pursuit Dog Training, Dylan spent four years under the mentorship of top trainers at Shield K9, where he honed his skills in obedience, behavioural rehabilitation, and personal protection. With a broad range of expertise, Dylan has a particular passion for rehabilitating fearful, anxious dogs—helping them shed their fears and gain the confidence they need to truly be themselves. He also excels in training personal protection dogs, using his knowledge to craft highly skilled, balanced working dogs.
Dylan’s approach is built on a foundation of trust, patience, and clear communication. Whether you’re looking to rehabilitate a dog with behavioural issues, develop a highly trained protection dog or simply have a well-trained companion, his goal is simple: to help your dog become confident, well-behaved and to create a lasting bond that brings out the best in both of you.
If you're ready to take your dog's training to the next level, Dylan is here to guide you ever step of the way.
