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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
