Solomon did an amazing job with our little Lily!! Westie’s are headstrong and stubborn by nature and he completely transformed her. She is so well behaved now. By far the best money ever spent on a pet. Would highly recommend Solomon and Bulletproof to anyone More...

Jerrell did an amazing job with our German Shepherd dog. Bo did the stay and train and came back well mannered and obedient. He can walk off leash without being distracted, comes on command, and no longer jumps or pulls on walks. This is exactly how I have always wanted my dogs to act. Jerrell sent videos and updates daily to show Bo’s progress. My only regret is that we didn’t do it right away. More...

I just picked up my dog after the 15 day board and train and he is a completely different dog in a good way. He listens to commands with and without distractions. He’s playing with other dogs. Jerrelle did a fantastic job and is so patient and truly understand what a dog needs and how to help the owner as much as possible. Highly recommend. Seriously. Worth the money !!! More...

I can’t say enough good things about Bullet Proof & Jerrelle! They did an amazing job training my sister’s dog—he’s so well-behaved now and no longer jumps on me. It’s such a relief not having to ask her to get him trained anymore. If I ever get a dog, I’ll definitely be sending them to Bullet Proof! More...

My family LOVES BulletProof Dog training! Our trainer was Kenzie and she was so very kind and treated our puppy like he was her own! Our German Shepard came home so well behaved and the training process was not hard to pass to us when he passed all his goals at the facility. Kenzie gave us daily updates that included pictures and videos! It made me feel so good to see our puppy happy daily and healthy while Kenzie helped him to learn the social and behavior skills provided. I recommend Bullet Proof Dog training to anyone wanting their pup to still enjoy being a dog but also knowing boundaries and commands to be able to join the family wherever the family goes with no worries on his behavior! THank you so much Kenzie for your hard work and love for our Justice. More...

Even months after his training, Bernie continues to perform all the commands he learned at Bulletproof and remains a GREAT boy! As a trainer, Kenzie was amazing with both Bernie and us.

I had Kenzie as my trainer for my dog scamp. She was absolutely amazing. She kept in touch with me and gave awesome updates on Scamp’s progress. Scamp was really high strung and struggled to focus anytime we took her on walks. She had a weird little scream she’d do out of excitement when she saw people or other dogs. Kenzie helped her safely socialize and get used to other dogs and people. She was amazing with her. My sweet pup was definitely stubborn, she has pit bull and boxer in her so she’s extremely bull headed. Kenzie was kind and patient with her and scamp is now very well behaved. Definitely someone I would recommend for other owners who have a hyper or high strung pup. More...

I have had three dogs go through training with Bulletproof, specifically the board and train, and it has been a worthwhile investment! You can tell the company and trainers take pride in their work and love what they do. I appreciate the ongoing communication from the initial phone call to set up a drop off time, to updates throughout the 2 weeks of training, and even after. If you have questions or concerns post-training, they encourage you to reach out and they’ll help you work through the issue. I love that! Kenzie trained my most recent dog, a 9 month old Labrador retriever, and she did a phenomenal job with him! Technically it is supposed to be a 15 day board and train program, but my lab was a little extra stubborn with some commands, and instead of sending him home on day 15, Kenzie wanted to keep him longer to make sure he was well trained. I really appreciated the thoroughness and commitment to offering quality results. Highly recommend Bulletproof!! More...

Our three year-old dog had reactivity issues and needed better obedience in order to be overall more manageable. Since his two-week board-and-train he definitely is! It’s also nice to have the e collar as a way to get his attention back on you - he’s a high energy breed and this was always our struggle. Our dog ended up loving his trainer, Solomon! Solomon took the time to make sure we felt comfortable at our turn over, I was worried we wouldn’t feel confident continuing the training on our own but it was great! Solomon also reiterates that we can text him for advice if we struggle. I was referred by a friend who also had a great experience! More...

I sent my 6-month-old Great Dane, Loki to Bulletproof and he spent 15 days with Michael in the Board and Train Program. Michael kept me updated on Loki's progress daily with picture, text and/ or videos. Loki did not do well with strangers at all before this time with Micheal. After 15 days Loki was great around everyone. He also seems to be more levelheaded for a lack of better works. He no longer acts like he doesn't know what to do with himself and you can tell he is more confident like he has a job now.

Services

Puppy Class:

We offer puppy classes for dogs that are 12 weeks to 5 months of age that have the proper vaccinations. These classes meet with a trainer one hour a week for four weeks. During our puppy class, your trainer will help you navigate all of the typical puppy behaviors. We go over potty training techniques, crate training, how to socialize and desensitize, bite inhibition, manners, leash walking, and some basic commands. This class is $130 and is included with the price of our Board and Train program should you wish to pursue further training.

Beginner Lessons:

We offer Beginner Lessons for dogs 5 months to 10 years of age that have the proper vaccinations. You and a trainer will meet at our facility one-on-one for one hour a week over the course of four weeks. During the lessons, your trainer will teach you how to train your dog utilizing an e-collar and positive reinforcement. Your dog will learn seven commands including: come (recall), sit, place, down, heel, break (release), and off (for bad behaviors). These lessons are $1000.

Advanced Lessons:

We offer Advanced Lessons for dogs 5 months to 10 years of age that have the proper vaccinations. You and a trainer will meet at our facility and out in town one-on-one for one hour a week over the course of seven weeks. During the lessons, your trainer will teach you how to train your dog utilizing an e-collar and positive reinforcement. The first four weeks of lessons are at our facility with the last three weeks being out in town at various stores and parks. Your dog will learn twelve commands including: come (recall), sit, place, down, heel, break (release), off (for bad behaviors), as well as three additional commands that you chose with your trainer. These lessons are $1500.

15 Day Board and Train

Our board and train program is the perfect solution to attain the best behaved/mannered on & off leash pup possible. We work a 15 day Board and Train program for pups older than 5 months but no older than 10 years with the proper vaccinations. Our minimum weight requirement is 10 pounds. We keep your pup for 15 days at our facility, sending you constant updates and pictures on how they are doing. On the 16th day, you come to pick your pup up and we spend about three hours together as we show you how to work and communicate effectively with your dog. We use positive reinforcement and the assistance of an e-collar to train core commands as they progress. In total, your pup will come home knowing 12 commands, be heavily socialized, off-leash capable (as long as it is safe for your pup to be off leash), and accustomed to being in stores and around crowds. In addition, we work on house manners, door manners, playtime manners, vehicle loading, and the typical bad behaviors.

Here is what your dog/puppy will learn during their stay:

*Sit and Extended Sit (Dog remains in position until released)
*Down and Extended Down
*Down at a Distance (up to 100 yards)
With or Without a Leash Walking
*Come on command (outside, off-leash, with distractions)
*Manners (No jumping, Counter Surfing, No more Getting into the Trash)
*Doors Manners (Wait until told to enter or exit door)
*Vehicle Load (Only go into the car when told to)
*Socialization around People and Dogs allowing you to enjoy your pet in the public
*Place and Extended Place (Jump up and sit on any object you point to on command and stay there until released)
This training would be a total investment of $2900, but we only require a $500 deposit to enroll and hold your training dates and the remaining amount is due upon drop off of your pup. We offer discounts for military and first responders as well as a multi-dog discount should you wish to enroll more than one pup.
