Our courses

Foundation Course

The 2-day Foundation Course gives a fascinating and practical introduction to the world of Dog Listening. Students will learn what makes a dog tick, understand exactly why dogs do what they do and discover precisely how to successfully solve canine problems.

Advanced Course

The Advanced Course in Amichien Bonding naturally follows on from the 2 day Foundation Course and further explores the contents of the Foundation Course, but in much more detail, looking at the canine world as whole rather than just from an owner’s perspective.

Graduate Course

(by invitation only)

This course is for students who wish to start a new career as as a Dog Listener, trained and guided by Jan Fennell and the  Amichien®  team.

Graduate Courses are not bookable by the general public and are by invitation only, following success in the Advanced Course exam. 

Online Workshop

We also have a downloadable Workshop available, for those who would prefer to learn in a more relaxed manner.

Foundation Course in Amichien® Bonding.

Many dog owners are searching for a way to enhance their relationship with their pets and for those we offer courses in Amichien® Bonding. This is the clear route to understanding why your dog does what it does and what you can do to communicate your wishes to your dog, in a way it actually understands, without resorting to force and without the use of any gadgets.

Advanced Course in Amichien® Bonding

This course takes your understanding much further. You will see how to use the method with all dogs and learn, in greater depth, the subtleties of their language. We use filmed case studies, with Jan at work, to illustrate exactly what is going on in different situations and explain how you can interpret what you see. There is also time spent on human psychology to help you identify when a dog’s behavioural issues are actually caused by the actions of their owners.
