Testimonials
“Daisy and Eric are wonderful trainers!! My puppy Biscuit just graduated from Puppy 1. He would get so excited to go to Pup Club and will definitely miss his friends! Biscuit had to miss someone days and they made it so easy to make them up and really worked with us! Also they were so very helpful with any questions and how to help us work on particular behaviors our pup was doing! I couldn’t recommend this place enough!!”

“Our Maltipoo pup Kernel had the best experience with the Carmel Pup Club and working with Derra. … We have noticed such a transition in our little guy and Derra was even able to share with us his likes and dislikes, making training at home even easier.”

“We had a great experience with both Derra and Daisy at Pup Club. Our puppy, Violet, was given a great foundation of basic commands and behaviors. They do a great job catering to each puppy’s learning style… Definitely will do again for our next puppy!!!”

About the Trainer
Pup Club, part of Club Canine in Carmel, Indiana, offers a positive reinforcement-based puppy training and socialization program for puppies 10–20 weeks old (Puppy 1) and adolescents 6 months to 1 year old (Puppy 2). The program combines structured training sessions with supervised playgroups to teach foundational commands like sit, down, leave it, leash walking, and bite inhibition, while promoting healthy socialization. Puppies attend two 3-hour drop-off sessions per week and one Sunday group class to review progress. An alternative “Play and Learn” option provides one-on-one training with play rewards, ideal for busy families or pups needing personalized attention. Trainers work closely with owners to create customized plans that fit family lifestyles. The facility also offers dog daycare, boarding, grooming, and a safe, veterinarian-approved environment with staff trained in dog CPR and first aid.
Pup Club emphasizes science-backed methods, with trainers observing and adapting to each puppy’s learning style. The program is designed so puppies associate training with fun, using play as reinforcement. Owners receive weekly take-home materials to reinforce skills. The facility is locally owned, women-operated, and flexible with scheduling and make-up sessions.
Pup Club is integrated with Club Canine’s full-service dog facility, allowing seamless transitions between training, daycare, and boarding. All dogs must pass a temperament test before enrollment, and aggressive dogs are not accepted. The team is passionate, responsive, and focused on building lifelong bonds between dogs and their families.
