Training them isn’t just a job for me, it’s the thing that keeps me going. I’m all about understanding what makes each dog tick, and using that connection to help you build a bond you can trust. ### How I Train - I believe in making training fun, not stressful. Positive reinforcement dog training is my go-to - treats, toys, even a simple game of fetch can work wonders. - Communication is everything. I’ll show you how to read your dog’s signals and respond, so you’re both on the same page. - I offer private sessions at your home, where your dog’s most comfortable. No fancy setups needed, sometimes even a cardboard box does the trick. ### What We Work On - For new puppy parents, I help you set up your home and get those puppy socialization tips nailed down. - Obedience training covers basics like ‘place’ and gets into advanced obedience drills for dogs who want more challenge. - Got a picky eater or a stubborn pup? Behavioral modification for dogs is part of what I do - we’ll work on motivation through play and food. - Leash walking solutions are a big one. Calm walks, no pulling, just you and your dog moving together, even in tricky spaces. ### My Journey I keep learning, always. From world champions to daily lessons with my own dogs, I’m dedicated to getting better for their sake. Sometimes it’s tough, sometimes progress is slow, but for me, every win with a dog feels like a win in life. Thinsi nodona (Let’s see if it eats) - that’s the kind of everyday joy I chase. ## Highlights Browse through Umesh Kumar's best work. ### [Featured](https://mytribe.in/umesh_kumar.s/dog-obedience-behavior-training/featured) - [Video: Teaching a powerful Rottweiler to heel calmly on a narrow balcony.

Honestly, if you ask me, dogs are my whole world. If there’s no dogs in heaven, then I’ll go wherever they went, simple as that. Found comfort in their paws when I needed it most. I keep learning every day, trained under a world champ too – not for the paper, but for the wisdom. It’s all about understanding dogs better, making that bond real. ### My work - **Dog Training & Counselling**: I do pre-puppy counselling, advanced obedience training, and IGP dog sports training. - **Bonding Through Play**: My style is play-based dog bonding and sensible methods, not just commands and drills. - **Building Drives**: We work on building food drive in dogs, fetch, play – sometimes just start with Thinsi nodona (let’s see if it eats). - **Up-to-date Techniques**: I keep sharpening my skills, bringing fresh methods learned from world champions. ## More services from Umesh Kumar - [Competitive Dog Sports Training](https://mytribe.in/umesh_kumar.s/competitive-dog-sports-training) · ₹1,000-2,500 per session (estimate) ## Experts similar to Umesh Kumar on mytribe - [Dog Obedience & Behavior Training by Jk](https://mytribe.in/dog_trainer_jk/dog-obedience-behavior-training) · ₹600-1,200 per session (estimate) · Bengaluru - [Obedience and Behavior Training by Spartan K9 Training](https://mytribe.in/spartan_k9training/obedience-and-behavior-training) · ₹1,000-2,500 per session (estimate) · Bengaluru - [Dog Training & Behavior Modification by The Urban Dawg](https://mytribe.in/theurbandawg/dog-training-behavior-modification) · ₹800-3,000 per session (estimate) · The Urban Dawg - Companion Canine Services - [Dog Obedience & Behavior Training by Hoo-Dog](https://mytribe.in/hoodog20/dog-obedience-behavior-training) · ₹800-2,500 per session (estimate) · Bengaluru - [Dog Training & Behavior Modification by Govind Raj](https://mytribe.in/pawsofpersistence/dog-training-behavior-modification) · ₹1,000-2,500 per session (estimate) · Bengaluru - [Dog Training by Pranati](https://mytribe.in/theo_n_me/dog-training) · ₹800-2,000 per session (estimate) · Sri Chamarajendra Park - [Dog Obedience & Behavior Training by Ranjith R1](https://mytribe.in/ranjith_r1_dog_trining_school/dog-obedience-behavior-training) · ₹10-28K per dog per board-and-train program (2-3 weeks) (estimate) · Karnataka - [Dog Training & Behavior Consultation by Garima Tomar](https://mytribe.in/garimatomar/dog-training-behavior-consultation) · ₹800-2,500 per session (estimate) · Bengaluru - [Dog Training & Behavior Consultation by Furry Story](https://mytribe.in/furrystoryofficial/dog-training-behavior-consultation) · ₹800-2,000 per session (estimate) · Bengaluru - [Dog Training by Balaji](https://mytribe.in/dogtrainer_balaji/dog-training) · ₹500-1,500 per session (estimate) · RT Nagar - [Dog Training by Paras Tomar](https://mytribe.in/offleash_india/dog-training) · ₹1,200-2,500 per session (estimate) · Offleash India Pet Resort 🦮 - [Dog Obedience & Behavior Training by Canine Coach Disha](https://mytribe.in/caninecoachdisha/dog-obedience-behavior-training) · ₹800-2,000 per session (estimate) · Indiranagar ## Book To book Umesh Kumar, message mytribe on WhatsApp: [Chat on WhatsApp](https://wa.me/916360004054?text=Hi%2C%20I'm%20looking%20for%20Dog%20Obedience%20%26%20Behavior%20Training%20by%20Umesh%20Kumar.)
