If you’re struggling with your dog’s behavior, you’re not alone. Most folks come to me because their puppy’s biting is out of control, potty training feels impossible, or walks are a tug-of-war. Sometimes it’s the barking, jumping, or just feeling like your dog isn’t listening. *Tumcha dog tumcha aikat nahi ka?* (Is your dog not listening to you?) Happens to the best of us. ### My Training Style - I use only fear-free dog training methods. No punishment, no shouting, no force. - Positive reinforcement dog training is my go-to. Treats, toys, praise - whatever your dog loves, we use that to motivate. - Sessions are short, consistent, and based on how dogs actually learn. I keep things practical and doable at home or outside. ### What I Help With - Puppy socialization tips for new pups, plus biting and potty training fixes. - Basic obedience: Sit, Stay, Paw, Place, and recall (Come). - Leash pulling solutions for calmer walks. - Behavior modification for anxiety, fear, hyperactivity, and impulse control. ### You’re Involved I coach you as much as your dog. You’ll learn to read your dog’s signals and keep the training going after I leave. Most sessions happen at your home or nearby, so your dog learns where it matters. ## Highlights Browse through Waggology by Vedika's best work. ### [Featured](https://mytribe.in/waggology/dog-training-behavior-modification/featured) - [Video: Nothing makes me happier than seeing a family's life transform through training.

Dogs call me all sorts of names, and honestly, I love it. Training for me? It’s not about bossing your dog, it’s about learning to listen to them. I believe every pet deserves a trained human - haan, sach mein (yes, really)! I’ll probably spoil your dog with a silly nickname and a lot of love. I care about all animals, streeties too. Main goal? Happy, calm dogs. And happier humans. ### My work - **What I Do**: Dog training, puppy potty training help, pre-pet consults, home pet sitting, vacation/event sitting, dog walking, and dog socialization treks. - **How I Train**: Only positive reinforcement dog training here. No fear, no shouting. Just love, patience, and lots of treats. - **For Pet Parents Too**: I coach you, not just your dog. You’ll learn to read their body language and build real trust. - **Puppy Problems?**: From biting to potty training, we start early habits for a lifetime of good behavior. - **Tough Behaviors**: Anxiety, aggression, barking? We find out why and make a plan so your dog feels safe. ## More services from Waggology by Vedika - [Dog Walking & Adventure Hikes](https://mytribe.in/waggology/dog-walking-adventure-hikes) · ₹200-500 per walk (regular) / per hike (adventure) (estimate) - [Pre-Adoption Consultation](https://mytribe.in/waggology/pre-adoption-consultation) · ₹500-1,500 per session (estimate) - [In-Home Pet Sitting](https://mytribe.in/waggology/in-home-pet-sitting) · ₹1,200-2,500 per day (estimate) ## Experts similar to Waggology by Vedika on mytribe - [Photo & Video Booth Rentals for Private Events by Pictastic Photobooths](https://mytribe.in/ pictastic_photobooths/photo-video-booth-rentals-for-private-events) · ₹18-45K per event (3-4 hours) (estimate) · Delhi - [Wedding & Event Gifting by Lush & Rapt](https://mytribe.in/lush_and_rapt/wedding-event-gifting) · ₹500-5,000 per gift/hamper (estimate) · Pune - [Event Planning & Decoration by Cherry Blossoms](https://mytribe.in/cherryblossomsstore__/event-planning-decoration) · ₹10-40K per event (estimate) · National Capital Region ## Book To book Waggology by Vedika, message mytribe on WhatsApp: [Chat on WhatsApp](https://wa.me/916360004054?text=Hi%2C%20I'm%20looking%20for%20Dog%20Training%20%26%20Behavior%20Modification%20by%20Waggology%20by%20Vedika.)
