Professional Dog Training and Behavior Rehabilitation
I don't believe in magic tricks. Whether it's severe reactivity or foundational obedience, I build trust first and train second. Here is a look at the results my pack and I deliver.
This is what real, safe socialization looks like. Leo, a young Shih Tzu, came to me full of fear and insecurity, lashing out at other dogs. I used my calm, balanced pack dog, Solan, to show him there was no threat. Watch how Leo’s aggression turns into curiosity and tolerance. This is the foundation of trust.
This is Rocky, an 8-month-old Indie who came to me with severe reactivity and a history of multiple bites, including one to his owner's face. This video shows the very beginning of his journey, where building trust through simple, structured feeding is the first step. I take on the toughest cases because I know how to rebuild a dog from the ground up.
This is what handling a 55kg wrecking machine looks like. My wife and partner, Simran, is one of the few decoys I trust with my dogs. Her skill and timing in controlling a powerful dog like Solan during a muzzle fight session is why our training is at an elite level. This isn't a game; it's about understanding and channeling raw power.
These two Golden Retrievers, Yoda and Mocha, had to be kept apart for four years due to intense sibling aggression. After joining my Board & Train program, they can now coexist peacefully. We didn't just train the dogs; we rehabilitated their relationship and taught the whole family how to manage them.
A true success story. Toby, an Indie who survived the streets, has officially graduated from my obedience program. He's pictured here with his proud owner, calm and confident. This is the transformation I live for, turning a dog's past into a story of resilience.
This is an emotional one for me. Here's my dog Solan earning his PSA 2 title, just like his mother Xena did before I lost her. This sport is more than just titles; it's about a deep connection, pushing boundaries, and honoring a legacy. It’s this dedication that I bring to every dog I train.
The handover session is where the real work happens. After Zara, a German Shepherd, completed her training with me, I focused on transferring all the skills to her owner. Seeing that bond click and the owner gain confidence is the final, most important step in my process.
A lot of people ask me what the best dog for a first-time owner is. My top choice is the Golden Retriever because they are a forgiving breed. New owners will make mistakes, and a Golden gives you the room to learn and grow with them. My job is also to guide you in making the right choice for your family.
About Featured
If you are looking for a quick fix, this isn't it. My board and train programs are about real, structural change. It starts with building trust, not just repeating commands. Whether it’s severe reactivity or basic manners, I don't sugarcoat the process—I train you to handle your dog with confidence, because once the leash comes off, you are the only one left in the picture.
My Approach: Trust Before Technique
I don’t view dogs as cases to be managed; I see them as individuals. My training facility in Sector 62, Gurugram, is built around immersion. By living with me and my balanced pack, dogs move from chaotic, reactive states to a place of structure and calm.
Why Board & Train?
Most behavioral issues like resource guarding or leash reactivity stem from insecurity. In my residential program, your dog gets 3-4 high-intensity training sessions every single day. This consistency is exactly what creates lasting behavior modification. I work with everything from fearful Indies to high-drive working lines like German Shepherds and Dutch Shepherds.
The Handover: I Train You, Too
The biggest mistake owners make is expecting the dog to 'stay fixed' without knowing how to maintain that structure at home. That is why the handover session is non-negotiable. I spend time teaching you the leash mechanics, the marker training, and the body language you need to keep the training alive. If you don't know how to lead, your dog will default back to old habits.
Elite Roots
My background is in competitive PSA (Protection Sports Association). While not every pet dog needs bite work, the discipline required for sport—impulse control, focus under extreme distraction, and clear communication—informs every session I run. You get the same level of precision whether I'm teaching your puppy to sit or rehabilitating a dog with a bite history.
