Dogs, humans, all together – celebrating birthdays, Friendship Day, sometimes just because. Our Simba even became a movie star in 'Naanu Matthu Gunda 2' (yeah, he dubbed for himself!). But it’s not only about the spotlight. We run adoption drives, rescue streeties, and yes, we cry when our dogs leave us. This is our life with dogs – full circle, all heart. ### My work - **All-in-one dog care**: Obedience, dog show preparation, boarding, grooming, socialization, therapy dog training, online training, dog walking, certification. - **Positive, reward-based dog training**: We train with patience and treats, building trust and focus between you and your dog. - **Dog show and film prep**: We help dogs find their spark, from dog show prep to making movie stars. - **Community and adoption drives**: We rescue, rehabilitate, and run dog adoption drives in Bangalore. Always for #adoptdontshop. ## More services from K9 Gurukul - [Dog Boarding & Daycare](https://mytribe.in/k9_gurukul/dog-boarding-daycare) · ₹450-950 per day (estimate) - [Dog Adoption & Rescue Services](https://mytribe.in/k9_gurukul/dog-adoption-rescue-services) · ₹1-15K per adoption (estimate) - [Dog Obedience & Behavior Training](https://mytribe.in/k9_gurukul/dog-obedience-behavior-training) · ₹18-24K per course (estimate) ## Experts similar to K9 Gurukul on mytribe - [Advanced & Specialized Dog Training by Ranjith R1](https://mytribe.in/ranjith_r1_dog_trining_school/advanced-specialized-dog-training) · ₹20-40K per course (estimate) · Karnataka - [Dog Obedience & Behavior Training by Hoo-Dog](https://mytribe.in/hoodog20/dog-obedience-behavior-training) · ₹10-24K per program (estimate) · Bengaluru - [Dog Board & Train Program by Dog Guru](https://mytribe.in/dogguru.in/dog-board-train-program) · ₹45-75K per month (estimate) · Amrut Dogguru Services Pvt Ltd - [Dog Obedience Training by Gourav Vartalur](https://mytribe.in/saga.thedogtrainingacademy/dog-obedience-training) · ₹4,500-9,500 per course (estimate) · The Run - [Dog Obedience & Behavior Training by Umesh Kumar](https://mytribe.in/umesh_kumar.s/dog-obedience-behavior-training) · ₹12-28K per pack (estimate) · Bengaluru - [Adult Dog Obedience Training by Zoella Dog Training](https://mytribe.in/zoella_dogtraining/adult-dog-obedience-training) · ₹12.5-28K per package (estimate) · Zoella Dog Training Centre - [Personal Protection Dog Training by Vicky Franklin](https://mytribe.in/fetchcaninetraining/personal-protection-dog-training) · ₹60K-1.2L per dog (estimate) · Fetch Canine Training School Phase 2 - [Dog Training & Behavior Modification by Poochkoo Mutts & Nutts](https://mytribe.in/mutts_and_nutts/dog-training-behavior-modification) · ₹48-75K per month (estimate) · Mutts & Nutts - [Dog Training by Eva's Inn](https://mytribe.in/evasinnblr/dog-training) · ₹30-55K per month (estimate) · Eva's Inn - Dog Boarding, Dog Daycare, Dog Training ## Book To book K9 Gurukul, message mytribe on WhatsApp: [Chat on WhatsApp](https://wa.me/916360004054?text=Hi%2C%20I'm%20looking%20for%20Dog%20Training%20for%20Shows%20%26%20Media%20by%20K9%20Gurukul.)
