Took my 4 year old Bernedoodle to bombshell K9 and did a six week board/training, I now have a very happy dog that does not automatically jump up when everyone gets home. He is not getting on the furniture and he is trained and behaves one hundred percent better than ever. It was a tough 6 weeks for me but the home life is way more happy for all of us. I would definitely recommend bombshell K9 to every dog owner. It will make you and your dog happier.

David, we appreciate you taking the time to write this. We're delighted your Bernedoodle is calmer, staying off the furniture, and that home life is much happier after our six week board and training. Knowing our dog training services helped your family and earned your recommendation makes us very proud.
Grey Clearshadow1 reviewiTotal number of Google reviews Grey has written across all businesses on Google Maps, not just this one.
Brought our dog who has a bite history. We did a five week board and train with Bombshell, and he has had an amazing change. Listening and obeying, excited for behavioral upkeep, gaining confidence. The one on one trainings after have been great for continued maintenance, helping with concerns, and adding new commands. Britaini Revelez has been so supportive in giving guidance and answering questions. I would highly recommend Bombshell K9 to those looking to have better trained dogs, especially if you have dogs with histories of aggression.
Response from the owner · 2 weeks ago
Grey, thank you for sharing this wonderful update. We are so pleased the five week board and train led to clear improvements in listening, confidence, and behavior. It means a lot that the follow-up one-on-one training and Britaini Revelezs guidance have supported ongoing maintenance and new skills. We appreciate your recommendation of our dog training services.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I can't recommend K9 Bombshell enough! I have a reactive rescue from Eastern Europe, Roman, and we've struggled for a long time to find the right training approach for him. I've worked with other trainers who were honestly afraid of him, and classroom-style training just wasn't a good fit because of his reactivity. I really wanted to work directly with Roman so I could better understand him, learn the right tools, and become a better advocate for him.
We did six private lessons with Britaini, and it was such a positive experience. Roman immediately took to her, which meant so much to me. She really listened to his history, my concerns, and what I wanted to accomplish. What I appreciated most was that there was absolutely no judgment, it truly felt like a safe space for both of us. Britaini genuinely works with all dogs and meets them where they are.
After six lessons, Roman is noticeably less reactive toward other dogs on our walks. We still have work to do, but I feel SO much more confident and equipped to help him. Our sixth lesson in particular was amazing, we were both kind of blown away by how much progress he had made!
I'm really excited to keep working with Roman and plan to do more lessons with Britaini. If you have a reactive or aggressive dog and have felt discouraged or unsure where to turn, I HIGHLY recommend K9 Bombshell. 🩷🐾

We're so grateful for your kind words, Alyssa. It means a lot that Roman connected with Britaini and that our private lessons helped you gain tools and confidence. Providing a judgment-free, safe space is core to our dog training services, and we are excited to keep supporting your progress with Roman. Thank you for recommending us.

My pit is from a shelter and he had behavior issues. Didn't listen at all. Now Chandler is more relaxed and has a better state of mind. He is calm and ready to listen and do as he is told. He stayed for 3 weeks and its the best thing that could've happened to him. I have no complaints and recommend this to anyone who's dog is needing help.

Thank you Britaini and staff for the work you did with Luna. She came as a handfull and left having some manners and her only being 5 months old I'm happy with the progress. The biting and nipping has stopped the jumping has pretty much stopped, she tries to sneak one in from time to time but I have to remember she's only 5 months. Thank you very much for your help with Lunatic.

Thank you Melissa for trusting Britaini and the staff with Luna. We're so happy to hear the biting and nipping have stopped and the jumping is mostly under control; that's great progress for a five-month-old. Our dog training services focus on early socialization and impulse control, and we're glad they're helping. If you want refresher sessions or support as Luna matures, our team is always here to help.

Brittany is a phenomenal dog trainer. I have taken my working dog for her to kennel him and too do some training, every time My K9 comes back more obedient! I have a Mal/shep mix and he is a high energy dog, he also weighs 85 pds. But Britt can handle
Him with no issues! I call her the true dog whisperer.
Response from the owner · 2 months ago
Thank you so much, Carlos, for the kind words. We're thrilled Brittany's kennel stays and dog training services are making your Mal/Shep mix more obedient each time. Britt is experienced with high-energy, large dogs and will always tailor training and handling to their needs. We appreciate you trusting us with your K9 and look forward to working with him again.

Words can not explain how blessed to have found K9 Bombshell for my big girl. Britaini and her team did an amazing job with my girl. I was on the verge of tears seeing how much she has gotten since I left her for a month of boarding training to see a Brand New Dog had me lost of words. I will continue to bring and board my dog with Britaini and her team. And funny enough my big girl loves her Aunty Britaini and can't wait to see her again! I recommend K9 Bombshell to any all breeds that she need extra love to be the best friend anyone could ever have!
