It’s a little known fact that sometimes health issues with dogs can stem from behaviour problems. A lot of times, unnecessary medications and treatments are prescribed for dogs who are showing health issues where the root cause lies in behaviour problems. Not a lot of people are aware that anxious behaviours, fussiness with food, compulsive itching and biting to name a few are sometimes not rooted in medical conditions but in behaviour problems. Fetch Canine Training is the only training academy that has the expertise to identify these issues and provide a well rounded and wholesome solution where the dogs' lifestyle is given priority over teaching them party tricks. Their Hydrotherapy program has helped a lot of dogs with joint and muscle issues avoid invasive surgery, not to mention the countless charity cases they take in Pro Bono.

Price: INR 12,000 upwards per month depending on the training program.

Most of our regular floor cleaners, dish washing liquids, laundry detergents, etc are chemical based which have led to an increased number of pets reacting to the chemicals over long time usage of these products. Green Tactics started out as a bio enzyme based solution for the founders who’s adopted dogs were experiencing a lot of skin issues due to this. As they spoke to more pet parents, they realised that this was a problem for countless dogs and so this small business based in Ahmedabad was born. Green Tactics products cover a range from floor cleaners, laundry liquids, dish washing liquids to body sprays for dogs that are completely natural, chemical free and gentle on the skin for our pooches. If you are looking to make the change to a sustainable and safe environment at home not just for the pets but for ourselves too, Green Tactics is the way to go!
