About Commando College For Dogs And Trainers
Since 1997, Commando Kennels has been at the head of K9 education in India! Our philosophy has always been to provide practical advantages to our students and to instruct them hands-on. We do not believe in two-day seminars led by “celebrity” academics; instead, we hold your hand and assure correct skill transfer and knowledge of the subject.
We believe in the science of animal behaviour and dog training at Commando College of Dogs and Trainers. This is the ideal team to train you because of their extensive topic knowledge and teaching expertise! Our trainers and lecturers are not only animal specialists, but they have also spent years teaching others how to train animals.
