About Professional Dog Trainer Certification
Turn your love for dogs into a real job. For me, being the Dog Guru isn’t about showing off - it’s about letting dogs teach us. This certification is for people who want more than just surface-level dog tricks. You’ll dig deep, learning to see the world through a dog's eyes and actually solve problems, not just patch them.
Our Philosophy: Shwana Manovaitajnya
I don’t just teach “sit” and “stay”. I help you understand yaake (why) a dog acts the way it does. Fear, not aggression, is often the root. The main thing I follow is maryade (respect) - earn the dog's trust, don’t just command it. If you want to be a real dog psychologist, this is where you start.
What You’ll Learn
- Canine psychology certification: No half-baked theories, just practical knowledge and real reasons behind dog behavior.
- Hands-on dog trainer program: You’ll be training with actual dogs at our Bangalore facility. Online theory is there, but the real stuff happens face-to-face.
- Pack management: Handling groups of dogs safely and smoothly, not just one-on-one.
- Advanced modules: From basic obedience all the way to detection and protection work.
The Experience
I guide you, but you do the work. My background with police K9 squads and speaking at TEDx is there to help, but it’s your journey. We run small batches for personal focus.
Finish the course and you’ll get a recognized certificate that proves you know your stuff. You’ll finally be able to answer, “Nanna naayi yaake nanna maatu kelalla?” (Why doesn’t my dog listen to me?) and actually fix it.

My Story
They call me Dr. Amrut, Dogguru. PhD and all that, but honestly, dogs are my real teachers. I’ve trained with police squads, forest trackers, even done BBC stuff, but the real joy? Watching owners change along with their dogs. People used to think I’d just fix their dog and return it. Nimma driver diesel haakiskondu bandre nimma car odisokke baralla (If your driver fills diesel, you won’t learn to drive). I teach you to talk to your dog, not just make it obey me.
My Work
All Dog Services - We do puppy basics, adult obedience, socialization, agility, aggression control, breed selection consultation, and professional dog trainer courses.
Dog School is a Must - At school, dogs learn to listen outside four walls, meet others, and handle distractions. Can’t bring 10 dogs to your house, right?
It's Psychology, Not Magic - I dig into canine behaviour modification, not just commands. Real solutions for aggression, anxiety, and fear. Teamwork: you, me, your dog.
Every Breed is Different - Breed selection matters. I guide you on which breed fits your life, climate, and space. No one-size-fits-all.
The Owner Must Learn - Training’s a partnership. Nanna maatu kelodalla mukhya, nimma naayi nimma maatu kelodu mukhya (Your dog should listen to you).
