Brandon Sharer
Founder & Trainer

Born and raised in Indianapolis, IN, Brandon brings over 14 years of U.S. Army service and a lifelong passion for dogs to the foundation of Good Bones K9 Training.

Brandon’s journey into dog training began as a teenager, driven by a fascination with canine behavior and communication. That early passion evolved into a purpose—one strengthened by his military background in discipline, patience, and structure. Today, those same values are at the core of his training philosophy.

Known for his calm leadership and results-driven approach, Brandon has worked with dogs of all breeds and temperaments—from high-energy rescues to reactive working dogs. His ability to assess behavior quickly and apply the right strategy makes him a trusted resource for clients facing both everyday obedience challenges and complex behavior concerns.

"A well-trained dog brings freedom—not just for the owner, but for the dog. I help unlock that freedom."
