Tara from Decoy School by Dev Puranik (Batch of 2023)
Thank you Tara for your kind words and trusting us from our first ever batch. Tara is a dog behaviourist and trainer based in Bangalore and runs her own working dog club @anarchyk9s , which also happens to be a sister club of Working Dog Club of Pune. She is one of the few who is doing some amazing work out there in Bangalore. We are so proud to have been able to witness her immense growth into training working dogs so closely and would like to say that she is one of the most hard working people out there who loves to put out better work than yesterday, everyday.
Bangalore folks looking out for a working dog club, don’t think twice and get in touch with her asap.

The price of decoying. @niyati.10 is a very important member of the Working dog club of Pune. She is both a promising handler and a very hardworking decoy. A couple of days back she was helping Rōnin learn some portion of his protection training for which she had to catch Rōnin on the tricep. Rōnin has gained some weight since he’s come back from trial and the cold mornings meant he was going to be a bit eager and fast. The collision looked bad and she went to ground and started screaming in pain. We later discovered she has a grade three tear in her ACl and medial miniscus. The most amazing part was that as she was laying there in pain she enquired about the dog and if this would have an adverse impact on his training. That’s a true decoys commitment to the dog. Niyati will be going into surgery early Jan and then will go into rehab the next few months. This post is an appreciation post to show her that she is important to all of us at the Working Dog club of Pune and we will all see to it that once she is back we will do everything in our power to help her certify as a decoy. We need decoys with her integrity. ..#decoylife #workingdogclubofpune #theindianhammer #clubdecoys #psak9 #psadecoys #decoylivesmatter
I had announced in a previous post that I want to post a bit on how I have to teach my dog pet dog things too in order to have an easier life with him. Rōnin and I have gone to a place where he knows he gets to play a lot so it’s an exciting place for him but I’ve taught him that the fun activity cannot start till he lets me put the leash on and only then can we get out of the car. I typically travel with Rōnin in a crate in my car because that way he doesn’t get hair all over my seat covers and I don’t like him interacting with beggars etc on the signal through the car window. But that’s a personal choice. This will work at the car door without the crate as well. Infact you can use it for a lot of other situations as well. In this case I do not offer a treat or anything as such. He gets the desired fun activity as a reward for showing patience. Thankyou @bestamancanbe for shooting this video for us. 😃🙏..#raisingronin #thelazymalinois #petdogtraining #dogloversofindia #dogloversofpune #dogtrainersofpune #dogtrainersofindia
We are training new decoys.
This is @niyati.10 who has a big future ahead of her in decoying. She’s catching Ragnar handled by @bhosalenilesh2281.
The transition from the catch to the drive was a bit off because she was not initially thinking of driving the dog and did so only after she got an instruction from the training director.
All n all she’s looking like she’s on her way.
Shoutout to @bestamancanbe for shooting the video.

Kato is an awesome pup and I have so many
expectations from him as a training director.
His handler @also_abhishek has been working
hard on him and it's been a fun ride so far.
Here's hoping he turns into a dog that everyone
talks about.

A confession. PSA 2 isn't easy to train for and
massive respect for everyone who has trained
for it let alone competed and / or got a title or a
leg.
For the uninitiated, in the video you can see us
practicing a call off and fended attack.
Thankyou @bestamancanbe @kushallchipkar
@sainath.shinde.92 for decoving©

Rōnin getting better at his Call Off. Rōnin isn’t very keen on coming off a decoy to take a reward from me. So now we give another decoy in place but he has to come to heel before considering the way the call off scenario is set up in the 2s. So now we can setup a number of decoys and be a bit varied on who we reward on.
