It is not just about the gear; it is about communication. In my sessions, we focus on getting your dog to respect collar pressure first. Once they understand that a slack leash is the 'reward zone' where they get to sniff and explore, the pulling usually drops significantly. If you are ready to stop the daily struggle, let’s get to work. ### Training is a Daily Thing, Not a Shortcut Many owners tell me, 'Disha, just fix the pulling.' But training is like coffee; you need it every day to function. If you are not consistent, your dog will go back to their old habits the moment you step out. A walk is not just for physical exercise. It is a mental activity. I teach you how to make walks a time for connection, not just getting from point A to point B. ### Why Your Dog Pulls (And How We Fix It) Most dogs pull because they are overstimulated or because they have learned that pulling gets them where they want to go faster. * **Leash Mechanics:** I teach you how to handle the leash so your dog feels your confidence. If you are nervous or distracted, they will sense it and take charge. * **Respecting the Tool:** Before we work on the walk, I ensure your dog understands the collar and leash. This is the foundation. If they fight the tool, they fight you. * **Neutrality:** My goal isn't for your dog to be best friends with every passing dog or person. I teach them to be neutral. They don't need to bark or lunge; they just need to ignore the world and focus on you. ### My Approach in Indiranagar & Bengaluru I offer home-based training sessions within a 5km radius of Indiranagar and across Bengaluru. We start indoors where distractions are low, then move to your building compound, and finally to public streets once your dog is ready. We will work on: * **The 'Leave It' Command:** Essential for ignoring street trash. * **Impulse Control:** Teaching your dog to wait for a release command before running out the gate. * **Sniffing Time:** A good walk includes at least 15 minutes of sniffing. I show you how to structure this so it rewards calmness. Training isn't a 5-day antibiotic course. It is a lifetime commitment. If you can't make time to practice, *toh dog bhi mat lao ghar pe*. But if you are ready to be the leader your dog needs, I am here to help. ## About Canine Coach Disha I’m Disha, and honestly, I’m just Duggu’s mom first.
