Shirin Dhabhar — Co-Founder
With over 30 years of experience in dog training and behavior, I have successfully assisted dog owners in India, England, and Sri Lanka since 1995, addressing a wide range of behavioral issues, including aggression, anxiety, and compulsive behaviors. My approach focuses on reward-based and psychology-driven training methods, ensuring a compassionate and effective learning experience for both dogs and their owners. In 1998, I founded Canines Can Care, India’s first organization dedicated to innovative canine training and activities, pioneering the use of assistance dogs and search and rescue dogs in the country. In 2002, I launched Woof! The Mag with a Wag!, India’s first canine magazine, recognized in the Limca Book of Records. In 2007, we introduced “Canines For Corporates,” a unique program that uses dog training techniques to enhance team-building through engaging offsite training camps. Accredited by the Kennel Club of England Accreditation Scheme for Trainers (KCAI) in Companion Dog Training and Behavioral Training, I am honored to be one of only nine individuals globally to hold this distinction. My aim is to support dog owners and aspiring trainers by sharing the knowledge and skills that can lead to rewarding experiences in the canine field. If you’re looking to deepen your understanding of canine behavior or seeking guidance in training, feel free to connect with me at k9cancare@hotmail.com. I look forward to the opportunity to collaborate.
