Jan Fennell is well known as the Dog Listener in the UK where she lives, and has spread the word about the success of Amichien Bonding, and how to implement it, around the world through the publication of five successful books, numerous TV programs and public speaking appearances. She also oversees the training of accredited Canine Communication Dog Listeners around the world.

Jan’s search for a better way to work with dogs and eliminate harsh practises, began in 1990, after she witnessed Monty Robert’s amazing ability to communicate with ‘unbroken’ horses - saddling and riding them in under half an hour. Horse owners around the world have wholeheartedly embraced this new knowledge of how to gently, quickly and successfully introduce young horses to the saddle and taken the cruel term “breaking in” a horse progressively out of our vocabulary.

Jan went on to study wolves (see Mission Wolf) and other wild dog behaviour in search of the same information for improving our understanding of how canines communicate, and how this could be put to practical use for pet dog owners and carers. Her goal is the elimination of unsuitable, harsh and coercive practises still widely used in the training and management of dogs. Jan’s success has been her ability to explain canine communication principles simply, and provide clear guidelines and activities for dog owners to follow so we can enhance our relationships with dogs and help eliminate undesirable canine behaviour.

Jan travels regularly to Europe, Australia and the USA speaking on Dog Listening and improving communication with other animals. See News.
