Canine mind basics, breed traits and bringing a dog home in India
Two Pro program members, Paresh and Reena, led their first practice sessions for the group, with Sunny Luthra facilitating and giving feedback. Paresh explained how to read a dog through three layers, the animal, the breed, and the individual personality, while Reena covered the practical, financial, and emotional commitments of bringing a dog home in India. The long Q&A that followed used real cases (pacing after walks, tail biting, nipping at legs, a bored Labrador) to show how to gather data before concluding on a dog's behaviour, and closed with an extended, unresolved group debate on ethical breeding versus adoption. Sunny also outlined plans to build member web pages using clips from these evaluation sessions.

Gut health, tick myths, dog fights, and a dog's protective aura
Sunny Luthra led a wide-ranging Pro call starting with a member's dog eating cow dung and picking up worms, which opened into a deep explanation of gut permeability, red alert inflammation, and why high-CFU probiotics like ProBelly matter. The call then covered tick prevention myths around Spot-on, NexGard and Simparica dosing, and safe ways to catch community dogs for vaccination. Later segments dealt with a member's dog losing appetite after a street attack and her own fear, dog-on-dog fighting and wound care between two Indies, and Sunny's teaching that women can use a powerful dog's aura to control threatening crowds.

Reading dog and human energy: a biting Indie case study
The call opened with a member sharing how her dog's recurring UTIs were traced back to absorbing her husband's stress energy, leading into a discussion on how sensitive dogs absorb human emotions. Sunny then ran a live case study exercise about a three year old Indie who bites and attacks guests and other dogs on walks, guiding members to ask better diagnostic questions. The group learned that they were jumping to conclusions about the situation instead of first gathering information about the dog and the human as individual entities, and that the real root cause was the male owner's chronic tension being absorbed and reflected by the dog. The session closed with an explanation of Wim Hof breathing and meditation as tools to regulate human emotional baseline, which is what actually resolved the case, plus a preview of how to communicate this kind of feedback to clients.

Fear peeing, territorial marking, and the case for structured walks
This OhMyDog Pro call worked through several live member cases: a dog urinating out of fear around a dog walker, a Shih Tzu marking territory, a puppy who submissively urinates with guests, and a multi-dog household with severe separation anxiety. Sunny Luthra used each case to teach diagnostic questioning, the difference between play and structured exercise, leash tool choice, and how a home's collective energy shows up in a dog's behaviour. The call closed with questions on leash tools versus a calf's energy, a dog's humping linked to a human's lack of boundaries, and puppy potty training for young Maltese dogs.

The Six Rituals of Dogs: walk, discipline, socialising, feeding, affection, play
Sunny Luthra explains how the Rituals of Dogs framework emerged from thousands of free consultations and how it is used to diagnose and fix almost any dog behaviour issue. He breaks down each of the six rituals, walk, discipline, socialising, feeding, affection and play, showing how mistakes in each create anxiety, territorial behaviour, hyperactivity or aggression. He then shifts to career advice, telling members how to gain experience through volunteering, build a client network, and use Instagram to get attention as a professional.

Tick fever signs, atopic dermatitis and food-drive training
This OhMyDog Pro call was a fast-paced member Q&A led by Sunny Luthra covering health emergencies like tick fever, vomiting, worms and conjunctivitis, alongside chronic issues like atopic dermatitis, old fractures and bladder leakage in senior dogs. Sunny also worked through behavioural cases, including a food-obsessed dog that scavenges on walks and a fearful rescued dog being mishandled by a walker. Throughout, he stressed getting a CBC blood test as the fastest diagnostic step, understanding histamine's role in allergies, and using calm, deliberate handling and impulse-control training rather than reactive fixes.

Diagnosing a Shih Tzu's barking: data gathering and the play ritual
The call opened with a quick consult on a dog passing yellow, fat-laden stools, where Sunny explained that undigested fat (not worms) was the cause and fat had to be cut from the diet. The main session was a case-study exercise where members practiced diagnosing a Shih Tzu that barked continuously at her human, using a structured data-gathering framework built around the six rituals (walk, socialising, discipline, play, affection, feeding). Sunny showed how the group jumped to labels like attention-seeking or demand barking too quickly, and walked them through reading the barking and timing as clues, revealing that the real issue was insufficient and badly timed play for a young, high-drive dog. The call closed with breed history on Shih Tzu and Lhasa Apso instincts and housekeeping on the new call schedule and pending evaluations.

Stress, gut mucus, neutering myths and building dog confidence
This call covered why household chaos and grief show up as pacing, chewing and licking in dogs, and how fear and stress squeeze the gut to cause mucus or blood in stool and UTIs. Sunny answered detailed questions on neutering myths, thyroid and dairy, insulin and weight loss, choosing air-dried or freeze-dried food, and how a healed gut and serotonin build a dog's confidence and change its drive. Members also discussed reactivity training with treat timing, reading excited body language safely, and managing a sensitive dog around Diwali.

Fear-induced gut squeezing, resource guarding and fast-eating dogs
This Pro call was an open Q&A led by Sunny where members brought individual dog issues for live troubleshooting. Topics ranged from fear-related stomach upset and vomiting, tick and parasite handling, reading a dog's body language in a trancing video, obsessive play and pack calming, to reverse sneezing, kennel cough follow-up, dog park fights, and a detailed resource guarding case study on feeding two dogs together. Sunny repeatedly tied physical symptoms back to fear, anxiety and intensity in the dog's emotional state and pack dynamics.

Mating instinct, fear and the four layers behind a dog's behaviour
Building on the previous class about dog emotions, Sunny used the specific case of a male dog fixated on a female in heat to teach that instincts sit at the deepest, animal level of a dog and can only be overpowered by fear. Members shared real examples of uncontrollable instincts in their own dogs, from prey drive to mating drive, and Sunny connected these to the reptile brain that humans and dogs share. He also described using sound, body language and visualised emotional energy to create a fear radius or calm radius around dogs, drawing on his experience running large off leash socialising sessions.

Working on emotions, not just timing, when correcting dog fights
Sunny Luthra introduced a shift in the OhMyDog method: instead of relying only on the old 10 to 15 second correction window, trainers should first read how intense a dog's emotion is, especially in fights, heat-cycle aggression, or fear, since emotion drives the behaviour and the dog links corrections to the feeling itself, not just to the trigger. He explained that tethering a reactive dog and physically stepping away mimics how a pack withdraws from unacceptable emotion, which is why isolating a dog can work even when done for the wrong reasons. Members brought real cases including a fight between Brownie and another dog, Wolfy's chewing and guest reactivity, an Indie's sleep-startle biting, chewing from boredom versus separation anxiety, and the effect of training two dogs separately, and each was reframed through this emotion-first lens. The call closed with a short discussion on the limits of episodic memory in dogs and the concept of a canine trance state.

Sibling rivalry, spay recovery, and leash mastery in dog Q&A
This OhMyDog Pro group call was a rapid-fire Q&A led by Sunny Luthra covering real client cases brought by members. Topics ranged from resolving territorial fighting between an older male and a young assertive female, to post-spay behavioural confusion, prey-drive triggered reactivity, excitement urination, walking-order dominance, and reinforcing calm behaviour in non-food-driven dogs. Sunny also previewed a new breed lineage tool he is building to help members understand instinctive behaviours tied to a dog's ancestry.

The behaviorist lens: instincts, personality and trigger stacking
Sunny Luthra gave batch one and two members a revision overview of Modules 1 and 2, covering the behaviorist lens's four layers (animal, species, breed, personality), how dogs perceive reality mainly through touch and smell before sight and sound, and how associative based thinking is driven by emotional intensity and repetition. He explained how unmet breed instincts and unstable environments cause fear, anxiety, aggression and reactivity, and answered member questions on breaking instincts, walking nervous dogs, and handling trigger stacking on walks. The call closed with logistics on exam slots and community resources for the Pro certification.

Board and train, dog intensity levels, and stray-dog introductions
Sunny Luthra led a wide-ranging Pro call explaining that board and train is really about dog-human compatibility, not a fixed package for specific issues, and walked through how to assess a dog's true energy baseline versus pent-up energy. The discussion covered how suppressed emotion and lack of guidance can raise a dog's intensity, how overexcitement can push adrenal glands into overdrive, and how to judge exercise needs from body type and behaviour on the walk. Members brought real cases, including a reactive lunge during a trip, two housemates who started fighting after a growth spurt, and how to safely introduce a dog to aggressive community strays. The call ended with Sunny sharing an unfinished story about rescuing a calf from his pack of dogs.

Building Dog Confidence Through Skills, Water and Agility
Sunny Luthra led a discussion on how confidence is built through skill development rather than delusion, in both dogs and humans, using agility, swimming, and daily obstacle exposure as tools. Members shared personal stories of overcoming fear (claustrophobia, water phobia, mountaineering) and connected these to how owner anxiety transfers to dogs through energy and behavior. The call also covered puppy separation anxiety training, collar sensitivity, reading tail and body language during dog greetings, and redirecting reactive dogs using leash timing, plus a case study on resolving a lift-biting incident with a housing society.

A lift-bite incident, car anxiety, and reading dog body language
The call opened with member introductions, then moved into a detailed case study where Prafull described his dog Kulfi biting a neighbour in a lift, with Sunny coaching him on how to stay soft and non-confrontational with the society rather than getting triggered. This led into a teaching session on how enclosed spaces like lifts and cars remove a dog's flight and avoid options, leaving only fight or submission, and how handlers can manage seating, vision and movement to keep dogs calm. Members then raised individual cases including Pixie's comfort-seeking in the car, Barfi getting overwhelmed by houseguest energy, Max's fear of mutton shops, Chai's fasting pattern linked to fear, and Paino's humping behaviour, with Sunny explaining the underlying psychology for each.

Reading Frustration vs Territorial Aggression: The Gooddu Dog Case
Sunny Luthra led the group through a viral video of a dog named Gooddu, teaching members how to tell true territorial aggression apart from frustration caused by a teasing human. The session covered how to spot whether a dog is bluffing or genuinely likely to bite, and worked through real client cases including a newlywed household's frustrated dog, a fearful dog named Chai, and a redirected bite from a powerful dog called Bhaisahab. The call also recapped the sequence for correcting nervous dogs and the three memory types, and closed with a discussion on vets overusing antibiotics and steroids and why short fasting periods are normal.

Decoding dog body language: anxiety, panic and vet visit handling
Sunny led a session on reading dog body language, breaking down how tension, arousal, nervousness, insecurity and panic show up in a dog's eyes, ears, snout and posture before escalating. He demonstrated hands-on techniques using the collar, snout alignment and a neck pressure point to keep dogs calm during stressful moments like vet visits, nail cutting and injections, stressing that handler confidence (not treats or commands) is what actually settles a panicking dog. Members shared real cases with their own dogs (Tin Tin, Dodo, Gabbar, Simba, Jackie, Pine) and Sunny walked through specific fixes for each. He closed with announcements on the midterm exam, compulsory one-on-one interviews, an upcoming vet internship, and a personal note about recent losses affecting his focus.

Kidney stones, hill dogs, bear encounters and inherited instinct
This OhMyDog Pro call opened with Kashish describing her dog's suspected UTI and kidney stone symptoms, leading Sunny to prescribe kidney tests and explain how excess calcium and cholesterol cause stones and muscle tremors. A large part of the call covered Bhavna's move to Uttarakhand, where she is preparing her dogs Doodle and Gulab for a jungle environment with bears, leopards and working village dogs, prompting deep discussion on leash training, genetic memory and instinct versus learned behaviour, including the caterpillar-to-butterfly memory experiment. The group then discussed how breeding for work shapes mating-driven instinct, Ashita's questions on Singapore's debarking practice and how dogs process trauma differently from humans, and Manya's questions on puppies eating cat faeces, post-spay growling, and the risks of casually giving deworming and tick medicines like Bravecto and Simparica.

Vet medication skepticism, raw feeding, and leash correction timing
Sunny opened by challenging casual use of Simparica, Bravecto, deworming and antibiotics, urging Pro members to build real biology and health fundamentals rather than following vet protocols blindly, and recommended Dr. Bruce Lipton's work as a starting point. The call then moved into an open Q&A covering a dog's eye discharge and tear ducts, pumpkin seed deworming, safe bone-in chicken feeding by soft-boiling, and a long practical discussion on leash correction timing, micro-corrections and prong collars for reactive dogs like Max and Barfi. Members also raised business questions about CCTV transparency in boarding and dosing ProBelly, and the session closed with stories of guard dogs protecting their owners.

Dog Arousal, Touch Correction, Boarding Cruelty and Puppy Instincts
Sunny led an open Q&A covering how to read arousal and tension in dogs, why touch correction should only ever be a last resort, and why board-and-train fixes symptoms while true behaviour work fixes root causes in the home. A large part of the call exposed how common physical abuse is inside boarding and training facilities and how to vet a caretaker in the absence of 24/7 video feeds. The group also discussed pack versus paternal instinct when puppies are born, mating and pack psychology across wolves, lions and dogs, and closed with a detailed look at newborn puppy development, instinct, the prefrontal cortex, and why certain breeds have cropped ears or docked tails.

Breaking up dog fights, calm hands, and the business of dog care
Sunny opens by unpacking a leash accident and what dogs actually learn when we chase them and then pull back, leading into a longer lesson on why corrections must come from psychology rather than physical force. He shares detailed stories of breaking up dog fights, including a Pitbull incident, to teach the loose-hand technique and the idea of making a dog surrender its animal instincts. The back half of the call covers the play ritual as a way to give dogs an off switch, announces the upcoming Pro midterm exam, and explores business opportunities (boarding, walking, behaviorist work) built on dog psychology knowledge, before members troubleshoot real socialising and territorial-fighting problems with their own dogs.

Gut healing, tick prevention, redirected reactivity and CBD
This OhMyDog Pro call covered how to read a dog's gut health through poop changes during a diet shift, safe fasting and deworming practices, and a detailed breakdown of tick and flea prevention options and their trade offs. Sunny then worked through live cases of redirected reactivity between two dogs, a puppy mouthing behaviour linked to the owner's own anxiety, resource guarding in a young puppy, and noise fear, teaching a leash pressure and release technique. The back half of the call moved into how dogs and other animals sense human emotion and dreams, how to train yourself to read dog body language, and closed with a discussion on CBD, THC, diet and root causes of anxiety and depression in both dogs and their owners.
