In the conformation ring, it’s all about focus, poise, and teamwork. The goal? To make your dog stand out as a true show contender. ### What I Work On - **Stacking**: Teaching your dog to hold that perfect breed pose. *Namma dogs alli... ee thara barbeku antha* (in our dogs, we say it should come like this). This takes time, but we keep at it till your dog stacks naturally. - **Gait Training**: We practice on open fields, getting the movement just right. Judges notice that power and grace, so I focus on proper canine gait assessment. - **Ring Ready**: Loud sounds, crowds, other dogs - I make sure your dog keeps cool, listens, and doesn't get distracted. Ring etiquette for handlers is part of what I teach too. ### Who Can Join If you have a purebred puppy (from 3.5 months old) or an older dog, we can start. I have a soft spot for German Shepherds, but all breeds are welcome. This is for shows under Kennel Club of India (KCI) and similar. ### My Part I don’t just prep your dog - I can handle them in the ring as your professional dog show handler. Years of experience, a few wins, and a lot of proud moments.
