I focus on what your dog can do, not what they can't. ## Photos and videos - [Video: Meet Shakti, a Great Dane who is both blind and deaf.

Many would call her 'broken' or untrainable, but that is a human failure, not hers. Instead of forcing her to adapt to my world, I amplify her sense of smell and rely on tactile cues to show her the path. Your dog does not need pity; they need clear, consistent structure that respects their specific way of interacting with the world. Every dog is an individual. That is the core of the work I do at my Bangalore facility in Bellahalli. When a dog comes to me with a label like 'aggressive,' 'blind,' 'deaf,' or 'reactive,' I disregard the label entirely. Labels are excuses for owners to stop trying or to start blaming the dog. ### Why Structure Trumps Sympathy When working with dogs that have disabilities or deep-seated behavioral issues, people often make the mistake of over-compensating with affection or lowering expectations. This creates confusion. A blind dog does not need you to carry them; they need you to be a reliable leader they can trust to navigate the environment. Whether I am using touch signals to communicate with a deaf dog or employing long-line training to manage a reactive rescue, the goal is always the same: clarity. ### The Rehab Reality Rehabilitation is not a quick fix. It involves identifying the specific triggers for a dog—be it traffic noise, other dogs, or strangers—and slowly conditioning them to remain neutral. * **Sensory Adaptation:** We use smell, vibration, and touch to build communication paths where sight or sound fail. * **Pack Integration:** For dogs like my student Luka, reintegration with a balanced pack teaches them social cues they may have missed or forgotten. This is not just 'playing'; it is a structured lesson in canine body language. * **Owner Accountability:** The training works because I teach you, the owner, how to maintain the boundaries we set here. If you revert to old habits, the dog will revert to old behaviors. If you are struggling with a dog others have given up on, reach out. We do not work with breeds; we work with personalities. ## About Vicky Franklin I'm Vicky, and I've spent over 15 years proving that 'difficult' is just another word for 'misunderstood.' I don't work with breeds; I work with individuals, from deaf Great Danes to reactive rescues, helping them find their balance through structure and respect.
