Custom K9 Dog Training offers four services across Bourbonnais, Kankakee, Bradley, and Manteno: in-home dog training, family dog obedience, behavior modification for reactivity and aggression, and working K9, protection, and PSA sport training. All programs are delivered in your home or on-site, and packages start at $600 for 5 one-hour sessions.
In-Home Dog Training
The behaviors you want fixed happen at your door, on your leash, in your kitchen. So that is where we train. In-home sessions build obedience and structure into your dog's actual daily life, and they teach you to handle your own dog long after the trainer leaves.
- ✓ Obedience and manners trained in your real environment
- ✓ Owner handling built into every session
- ✓ Packages start at $600 for 5 one-hour sessions
Family Dog Obedience
Jumping on guests. Dragging you down the block. Ignoring every command until you raise your voice. Family obedience training replaces the chaos with calm, using clear communication and commands the whole household can run, kids included.
- ✓ Calm greetings, loose-leash walking, reliable recall
- ✓ Puppies started right, rescues given structure
- ✓ Every family member learns to handle the dog
Behavior Modification
Reactivity, aggression, fear, and guarding do not fix themselves, and they do not respond to generic advice. Serious cases start with an in-person evaluation, then a plan built in order: safety and management first, structure second, controlled exposure third.
- ✓ Leash reactivity, dog and human aggression, resource guarding
- ✓ Honest assessments, no guaranteed-cure sales pitch
- ✓ Quoted after evaluation, because the plan depends on the dog
Working K9, Protection & PSA Training
High-drive dogs are not harder, they are different. Drive without control is a liability, and control without drive wastes the dog. From foundation obedience under distraction to protection and PSA sport work, the program channels what the dog was bred to do.
- ✓ Foundation through advanced protection and PSA sport work
- ✓ Malinois, Shepherds, and high-drive breeds handled daily
- ✓ Off-switch training so the working dog can live in a home
Training Packages Start at $600
5 one-hour in-home sessions. Behavior modification and advanced K9 programs are quoted after an evaluation. The full breakdown is published in our pricing FAQ.
From Mark: Not sure which program fits your dog? Call and tell me what is happening. After 25 years, I can usually tell you in five minutes whether you need obedience, behavior work, or a job for a dog with too much engine. The conversation costs nothing.
