Since 2003, Ryan and Sandy Bulson, the heart and soul behind Mason Dixon K9, have dedicated their lives to rescuing, rehoming, tracking, and training dogs. Over the past two decades, their compassionate mission has led them to foster and rehome hundreds of dogs—from playful puppies to senior companions, including those with medical and severe behavioral challenges. Their tireless efforts have not only transformed countless lives but also earned them respect in the K9 community as ‘The K9-Power Couple.’

In 2021, the Bulsons turned their lifelong passion into Mason Dixon K9, a premier training and boarding facility set on 50+ scenic acres in Carroll County, Maryland. Their vision soon expanded to a Full-Service Pet Resort in Hanover, Pennsylvania, allowing them to better serve clients and rescue organizations along the East Coast. At the core of Mason Dixon K9’s success is their commitment to tailored, one-on-one balanced training programs that focus on fostering strong communication between dogs and their owners. Rejecting cookie-cutter methods, they craft individualized regimens that result in well-mannered, confident, and thriving canine companions.

Backed by over 20 years of expertise, Mason Dixon K9’s philosophy and specialized approach have earned them countless glowing reviews and success stories, even with the most challenging behavioral cases. Their certified trainers—equipped with Pet Emergency First Aid & CPR certifications—ensure expert care and the highest safety standards. Every graduate receives comprehensive post-training sessions and continued guidance to ensure long-term success, reflecting the Bulsons’ unwavering commitment to every client.

But Mason Dixon K9’s impact extends beyond training. The Bulson family’s journey began with a single act of compassion—fostering “just one dog” through a local rescue. That step sparked a life-changing mission, transforming even ‘un-adoptable’ dogs into proud Canine Good Citizens®. These once-overlooked animals now bring joy and hope to their forever families. By supporting the rescues Mason Dixon K9 works with, you can help more dogs find the loving homes they deserve.
