1-2-1 home consultations to help you and your dog/puppy

- in solving your dog problems through learning the language of the wolf.

(Recommended by Jan Fennell / Every Chance Rescue)

When we live with- and spend time with our dog, it becomes really special to us. We do our utmost, to care for our dog and to ensure, that it can adjust well in our world. Sometimes however, we encounter dog problems, major or minor, that we don’t know how to solve.

This method, called Amichien ® (friend of the dog) Bonding, which comes from Jan Fennell,

can help you with all dog breeds and all dog behavioural problems, from merely getting your dog to walk happily on the lead, to more serious problems such as separation anxiety or aggression. It is ideal for rescue dogs, that need time and care to adjust and for raising puppies.

Because the dogs’ ancestor is the wolf and wild-living dog, a dog has a strong pack consciousness.

In the hierarchy of the wolf pack, there are two leaders, the” Alpha” male and female.

Our dog at home too, looks to us each day anew, to determine its position in the pack and who might be “Alpha”.

If it chooses itself as “Alpha”, then this can lead to problems, as the dog carries out its job in our modern human- ruled world. This can result in aggression, anxiety , stress, lead pulling, jumping up etc.

We feed and walk our dog, tell it to “sit” etc and think that therefore, our dog must be viewing us as leader. This is sometimes not the case, simply through the difference in the “canine” language.

If we copy the gestures of the Alpha wolves in the situations that are crucial to our dogs however, we will achieve that our dogs relax and elect us as pack leader of their own free will. Stress, fears and aggression in dogs will be resolved.
