Police K9 For Sale

What Police K9 For Sale does

Bullocks K9 Kennels (operated from a single facility at 1308 Mumford Rd., Greenville, NC 27834) is a privately held, founder-owned canine training and sales business founded in 1989 by Mike Bullock. The company selects, tests, and trains working dogs for law enforcement, federal agencies, and search and rescue organizations, spanning single- and dual-purpose police K9s (patrol, narcotics detection, explosives detection, tracking, evidence recovery), specialized detection dogs (accelerant, gun, bed bug), personal protection dogs for civilian buyers, and obedience training for pet owners. Its core 'technology' is a hybrid Positive Reinforcement and Positive Punishment training methodology together with a proprietary pass-fail K9 prospect testing protocol (hunt/retrieve drive, possessiveness, pole work, bite testing under varied environmental conditions), refined by Mike Bullock across 35 years and supported by his credentials as a court-recognized expert in police K9 tactics, former MARSOC Special Forces lead instructor, and National Director of the American Working Dog Association.

The business sells directly from its Greenville, NC facility with no dealer network. Revenue is generated through (i) one-time sales of pre-trained working dogs at price points that vary by training level and specialization, (ii) professional services revenue from handler academy training (Police K9 Academy, small class sizes with a 4:1 trainer-to-handler ratio), (iii) detection services and certifications for agencies and commercial buyers, and (iv) obedience training for civilian pet owners including board-and-train packages. Marketing is primarily content-driven via the company blog, Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube (@k9man007), with sales conversions handled through direct email and phone contact. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; quotes are negotiated based on dog age, breed, training level, and certifications.

Operationally the business runs lean with 1-10 employees (three named staff: Owner/Master Trainer Mike Bullock, Trainer/Handler Joy McRoy, and Trainer/Decoy Jamar Clark). It maintains regulatory credentials that materially shape its competitive position, including a Federal DEA License held for over 23 years and certification by the State of North Carolina Private Protective Services Board. The company serves agencies and individuals nationwide, with no international footprint, and is privately held with no disclosed funding rounds, investors, or M&A activity.
