Private Training

Private one-on-one training sessions are available and are great for a variety of situations, including:

  • Sometimes you just can’t sign up for a class because life is too busy but still want the benefits of having help with training your best friend.

  • Perhaps your pooch is very shy and a group setting is just a little too overwhelming for him.

  • Your pet has a behavior you would like changed but you are not sure how to make that happen.

There are so many training sites and information out there so how do you know what is right? We can help. Our private sessions are set up either with one of our team members or we can refer you to another positive, non-aversive trainer in Northeast IN that can come to your home to help you. No matter what you and your pet’s needs are we will work with you to help define the problem and create positive, life improving solutions.

INVESTMENT: $95 per hour

*Please note that some behavior problems are considered training problems while others are disorders and require a veterinary diagnosis. We at Pet Pals Country Club are unique in that we have the ability to manage and treat both levels of problems. We also understand when to recommend a referral to a Veterinary Behaviorist who is board certified to handle such cases.
