Every dog HAS CAMPUS DAYS Its no secret that dogs improve mental and physical health they are perfect stress busters.

I took up the assignment for training 12 dogs at all of 6 Symbiosis campus situated in Pune Training all of them for therapy incorporating resident students to train, play and interact with the dogs. Symbiosis has initiated this idea and has turned out to be a huge success.

TEDDY

TEDDY

Breed: Labrador

19th April 2013, was the date when we brought little Teddy home. Mom though adamant not to have a dog in the house, Mom, however pleased with his stupid antics would be put off because of his frequent house breaks. As a matter of fact! me, dad and my brother were to blame for this. We thought the little thing would not cause a lot of damage. Well! of course we were wrong. Finally our vet suggested M/s Neeta Godambe as the best trainer and that she was certified and most trustworthy. Contemplating on whether to spend money on a trainer, should we buy more time in trying it ourselves ?? We went ahead and got in touch with Neeta our best option.

Angle

Angle

Breed: Golden Retriever

Angel, our 4 months old Golden Retriever was showing signs of domination towards us and was very possessive over her bed and other items in the home. Neeta showed us ways to correct bad manners and behaviour. Using a calm, controlled consistent and positive approach We learnt that Angel had become ‘Pack Leader’ and we were jumping to her every command – this has changed for the better and we are now the leaders of the pack!Neeta also helped us with Angel’s recall. Angel loves being out, so much so that she wasn’t interested in coming back when asked! With new techniques in place and turning it into a positive experience for Angel. with more practise this is something that will now continue to improve.

CEASAR

CEASAR

Breed: Labrador

Training for Ceasar began really early at 2 mths, Neeta’s first puppy raising session gave me a lot of information on setting rules, boundaries and structure Being a first time dog owner I felt completely at ease to tackle many issues I was fearing, soon Ceasars command based training began, one thing I learnt that success of training completely depended on how much I worked with my dog daily. Neeta made sure that I practised each command and took training seriously. Soon positive results were noticed. funny though Ceasar listens to my 4 yr old daughter, I am pleased with my choice of Neeta.

RAJA

RAJA

Breed: Doberman

I got Raja at 2 mths age by 5 mths he had become a very naughty puppy quite stubborn to listen to any commands, I had over pampered him and knew this problem needed to addressed, Neeta after listening to the various issues of handling suggested that I should take the puppy raising session, the session helped me to understand how to communicate with a dog in a simple effective manner, All in all the dog has to understand who the master is and must have respect. with some corrections Raja slowly changed for the better. Now most of the problem have been solved and the remaining few will be a gradual process Its just a matter of time and patience

Rio

Rio

Breed: Golden Retriever

First time when 45 days old Rio came to our house, we were having brimful of queries regarding raising him, 4 members of our house – each one having his/hers method and view point It was a wise decision to go in for Neeta’s puppy raising session a 2 hour interactive session with the family. Her knowledge on dog behaviour and skills to read and interact with the dog is really amazing –Rio had learnt to run out of the door at each door bell, within minutes she changed the scenario, even today when the door opens Rio now sits away from the door exactly in the same place she had instructed him to do so first time Her timely session gave us proper direction and helped us a lot to happily accommodate Rio as new addition in our family. She explained that human emotions and canine emotion are different Her guidance is helping us to raise Rio in a win win situation Thanks Neeta for your whole hearted support

AVATAR

AVATAR

Breed: Newfounland

4 mths 40 kgs-!!! Avatar a bear dog just like his name suggest there is no way one cant love this dog his daring personalilty his majestic built and very out going friendly nature is what drew me to select this breed. At 4 mths avatar presented all characteristics opposite to the above, he also didn’t quite understand his name, interact or play like how puppies do.He also had peculiar trait. He had this imaginary boundary beyond which he refused to walk hence there was no exercise for Avatar Worried sick as how to get him out of his shell and make brave I am very glad to have Neeta look into Avatars behaviuorial issues. She not only knew the breed characteristcs but also stressed on the point to build a relationship with Avatar by being there and do with him the things he loved, not to scold or raise the voice without reason, with some techniques and silly tricks we would to take Avatar for small walks at but at times his stubbornness in absolute refusal to walk even step beyond a point. Flee back home on seeing another dog or even hear another dog bark would worry me, wondering if I could ever take my Dog for a long walk ?? My discussions with Neeta would bring in relief that time patience and consistency will bear fruits – and indeed everyones efforts have paid off, Avatar now goes for long walks even on busy streets and best time is to see Avatar look at another dog and stand his ground.

BRUNO

BRUNO

Breed: St.Bernard

Big little teddy bear so very cuddly but started to develop behavioral issues, he was lazy and very reluctant to walk with no interest to go outdoors, hence his pee/poop started to become a problem, no matter for how long we kept him outdoors and applied all the tricks to make him pee/poop as soon as we got him home he would relieve himself tired and worried of how to fix the problem our Vet advised to call Neeta, our first session left us with rules of how to interact with Bruno and some do’s and don’ts of-“Dogdom” She explained the importance of exercise for this giant breed and trained him to walk on the treadmill twice a day for 5min. Bruno initially apprehensive soon became very comfortable, with each passing session of Desensitizing technique, little patience and constant effort Bruno started shedding his fears of busy streets, vehicles and traffic noise, Bruno also very effortlessly learned other obedience commands,Today I feel certain joy to see Bruno run on the treadmill and overjoyed that Bruno has started to pee/poop outdoors and all this wouldn’t be pawssible if it hadn’t been for Neeta—Thanks!!

KARA

KARA

Breed: Tibetian Mastiff

Kara when little puppy a complete package of mischief absolutely wild and hyper energetic.As mths passed quickly she grew very strong and large and her temperament changed to stubborn, dominating and very moody dog. I also own 2 other small dogs hence Training her became very important , Neeta was very sure of how this temperament could become a source of trouble , she also pointed to how there could be a bloody fight between Kara and my other dogs over attention, toys, petting, territory and it did happen no sooner than had she said that , Neeta also cautioned about the breed that they are difficult to train but slow persistent calm and confident approach is the only way forward it took a while but Kara soon got her commands right Neeta taught Kara a scenting game and Kara is happy to search her toy get cheered . Training helped us to understand and connect to Kara – Neeta made my wild dog into a pefect loving companion !! Always very willing to please me.

SCAMPER

SCAMPER

Breed: Cocker Spaniel

Ever since you have started training scamper, who is now 11 months, i have seen a lot of good changes in him. I called neeta as I could not control his constant chewing and biting furniture moreover his toilet training seemed so very difficult to achieve but after you suggested the techinique and schedule there was a remarkable improvement . his basic commands like sit, stay, down, retrieve are all now perfected. the tips and suggestions you always give are proving to be very helpful! i never thought that training him after so many months would be so effective. thank you so much for all the training for now scamper is a better dog though work is still in progress!!

ZORRO

ZORRO

Breed: Labrador

When we decided to bring a dog home we were clear that we did not want a very small pup. We brought home a 21 weeks labrador from a family who were finding it difficult to manage the needs of a big dog. He was almost full grown but was yet to reach adolesence. He needed to quickly settle into the new environment and we had our own doubts. We decided to train him with Neeta. Well it turned out that more than the dog, we needed to be trained to handle him. We went through the training sessions and ensured we practiced and repeated the instructions. The initial few days were not easy. Soon we learnt to handle him and he learnt to understand and obey our instructions! Now we understand him and are very confident in handling him. This transition would not have been possible in such a short duration without Neeta’s support. We agree…….. its pawssible!

NARGIS

NARGIS

Breed: Labrador

Our 6 month old Labrador puppy, Nargis, is a sweet but dominating dog. She is playful, but at times also very aggressive if things do not go her way. We were worried by her dominating nature, especially her habit of not letting us sit on her places/ getting attached to certain things in the house, and most of all biting After signing up for your dominance reduction /obidience training, and understanding of getting her into a clam submissive state there have been substantial changes in her behavior. Her biting has stopped completely. Also, as you have explained us the pack-structure, which we were not aware of, we do take care of certain things that helps us prevent her from getting into a dominant role. She is now lovable, playful puppy. We thank you for your help for understanding Nargis better.

VITHOO

VITHOO

Breed: Pugread

Vithoo my 8 month old pug is now a changed entity. Still remember my desperate call to you after vithoo tore apart my new sofa and not only was I horrified but I was lost on how to get things right; that was when I made that much delayed call to you. I was aware that training does make a difference but this was Fantastic.The persistent sofa tearing stopped immediately after you suggested the balloon trick , well most importantly was the discussion and a eye opener about how owners get into a small dog syndrome. being the leader and giving leadership changed vithoo to respecting all the house members Ofcourse as the training proceeded things changed for the best.Now we have a calm and very well behaved pet.Training continues but as you always say it is an ongoing process.

JINGO

JINGO

Breed: Hound

Jingo’s training with Neeta was just an amazing experience both for my dog and me! This is the first time that i have a dog and its just not any dog its a Caravan Hound!! I was pretty excited to get him home but then i realised handling him was a very difficult job, thats when Neeta and I started his training. After which it really was not hard to handle !! Her guidance and continious efforts slowly transformed him. She is not only a good trainer but being a behaviourist gave her an edge in solving jingo’s problems. Playing with him every now and then is something that we all really enjoy! Thanks for making jingo such wonderful pet.

My 7 months old energetic mongrel,pepper, she started trainging with Neeta at 4 months. So now she is discipliend and well behaved. More importantly Neeta was able to show me how to do what has to be done, so you could say trained me to communicate better with pepper. Its a process and will continue with Neeta providing the support as and when i call upon her with my doubts and anxieties, Neeta also tracks what pepper is doing now and then gives me tips by mail or in person. After she completes a year pepper will go for agility training with Neeta.

BERLIN GSD

BERLIN GSD

Breed: GSD

We have two pets, one is 6 years old Labrador & one is 6 old GSD. We conducted a lot of Training sessions with some other Trainer for our Labrador when he was 6 month old but training was not very successful…. Our doctor Mr Narendra Pardeshi refered Neeta Mam to train our new GSD puppy which we had adopted. She advice us to conduct the training at the age of 2 months…In just 5 sessions the dog learned crate training, obedience, potty training and leash walk, at that time he was not even 3 months old…One major thing what we observed in Neeta Mam’s Training is, she made the environment playful & fun for the dog to learn the things easily. She also spend a lot of time with the us in discussing the summary and teaching us different techniques.

LAILA & PARI

LAILA & PARI

Breed: Golden Retriever

I decided to get Lab one day but ended up buying two female Labs. Black one is Laila and the Faun one is Pari. they were 40 days old full of life. I was so much in love with them that I forgot the training part. They used to pee everywhere in the house. They were chewing everything in the house. Even when I used to feed them…Laila would finish Pari’s food as well. Slowly and steadily they were growing bigger and were going out of control. Finally my vet who suggested me Mrs. Neeta Godambe. The Puppy Raising interactive session with Neeta Mam cleared so many misconceptions and took me thru each and every aspect of puppy training she not only gave me proper guidance but also the skills of communicating with the dog to get into the masters role the session has made a lasting impact.

ASTRO

ASTRO

Breed: Golden retriever

Neeta was not only a trainer but a big support and played a major role in bringing up my puppy, Astro. Normally they say training starts only after 3 months of your pup’s age but for us Neeta came into the picture right from the first day when we got him home. He was just 2 months old then and we being first time dog owners were very tensed. I spoke to her practically every second day of the first 2 weeks. She was extremely patient and helped in every small thing… Not just training but even the routine stuff like where he should sleep, where we should place the training pad, his food, his toilet timings Within few weeks astro was crate trained as well as toilet trained…Life is so much more fun with Astro now, thanks to Neeta
