About Bark Tutor School for Dogs

Bark Tutor School for Dogs is Indianapolis's original day training program, built specifically for puppies and adolescent dogs up to six months of age. Our credentialed trainers work with your dog during the day, then bring you into the process at pickup so the learning carries home with you. Our curriculum focuses on foundation obedience and essential life skills, with intentional socialization opportunities throughout. We believe the early months are the most important window in a dog's development, and we take that seriously. Programs include Day Training and Private Lessons. Graduates of Bark Tutor are also welcome to join our daycare program. Part of the Bradley Phifer Dog Training company.

What people have asked about this business.

how much, do y'all charge for each dog to go train there?

I paid $100 for a four-session intro class. Each class is about one hour long. Class itself, only ok. Instructors are great resources though!

We took our 8 month old puppy here for their three week long training program. And we are ecstatic with the results!! Nick was her trainer, and he was great! As an owner, you attend two lessons a week to go over what was worked on with your dog and how to properly bring the training home. Nick made it so easy to understand! Highly highly recommend Bark Tutor!! Our pup is doing great and we’re so glad we went with Bark Tutor!

First group training session went really well! We purchased 4 x 90 mins over 4 weeks to train our dog to be loose leash on walks. We have an Australian labradoodle and they are super clever so will learn anything but we needed some simple work on the basics. I love the name Bark Tutor and their trainer did a great job opening night and their staff was ready to greet all the 6 dogs and their people as we each arrived. We just moved to Butler Tarkington area so this is great close location for us.
