This amazing journey has been made possible by the dogs in my life, as they helped me on the way. They rewarded me when I got it right, and showed me when I got it wrong.
These dogs may have gone from my arms but they will always be in my heart. |
| |
 I have always believed that dogs were put on this earth to make every human feel special and loved. |
| |
 By finding their language and adopting 'Amichien® Bonding' I am finally able to give back to them. |

Sasha
My beautiful black German Shepherd (left). She was a proud and intelligent girl who's generous nature made me appreciate how kind dogs really are. Sadie is on the right at 6 months old. |

Sadie
The watcher and carer, who proved to be a very special girl, so loyal and kind. This portrait was a gift from my Dog Listeners. |
| |
Barmie
The Jack Russell who was to be put down for aggression until I took him home. It took me a few weeks to convince him that he had nothing to fear, and that he really could trust me. We shared 7 magical years. |
| |
Molly
With the most laid back personality I have ever known in any dog. She had a wonderful sense of fun. |
| |
Jake
Who just loved a cuddle, and was so good at commando roles. He did cheat on the agility course, but we didn't care. |
| |
Bear
Came into our family at 6 years old. She had so many problems both physical and behavioural and reminded me that patience is the key. |
| |
| The present Amichien family, who continue my education: |
| |
Shamook
Smart, and sensitive with a passion for tummy being rubbed. |
| |
Jen
Our senior citizen, she may be the smallest, but she knows how to exploit any situation. Her spring lamb impression is legendary. |
| |
Kerry
Who like her great g.g.g.g.g.grandmother Donna, regards herself as an aristocrat, a Duchess. Now enjoys her retirement with my daughter Ellie and her family near Cardiff. |
| |
Rio
My elegant girl. So strong, and determined with affection to spare. |
| |
Zac
The walking disaster, who's motto would be "It wasn't me, I'm a good boy''. |
| |
Kamatz
The joker in the pack |
