In my workshops, I focus on the 'why' behind the behavior—whether it’s leash pulling, reactivity, or impulse control—and show you how to manage it in real-world environments like parks and busy streets. You walk away with a toolkit you can actually use tomorrow, not just a set of commands that work in a sterile classroom. Dealing with a high-drive dog or a pup that gets overwhelmed is tough, especially in a city like Bangalore. I run these workshops to bridge the gap between 'knowing a command' and 'having a well-mannered companion.' I keep groups small so we can tackle specific issues. Maybe your Lab goes wild at the sight of another dog, or your Indie gets hyper-vigilant when guests arrive. We practice 'parallel training'—working near other dogs without the pressure to interact. This teaches your dog that they don't have to greet every single animal they see, which is often the root of reactivity. We use Bangalore’s diverse spaces to train for the real world. We aren't just in a fenced yard; we’re learning to handle distractions, narrow paths, and city noises. I’ll show you how to read your dog’s body language—that tiny lip lick or tail tuck that signals they’re stressed before they react. You aren't just learning to control your dog; you're learning to listen to them. My approach combines structure with play, ensuring the training is rewarding for both you and your dog. Whether you need to fix a specific issue or just want to strengthen your bond, these sessions provide the guidance to get there safely and calmly. ## About Garima Tomar I’m Garima, and my life revolves around Floyd, my Belgian Malinois.
