I have always loved dogs and they have always been a part of my life.  When I realised that I wanted to take that interest further and turn it into a career in dog behaviour there were many roads available. I stumbled across one of Jan’s books by chance when browsing a retired greyhound website and decided to read it. As I read the book “The Practical Dog Listener” the more I read the more everything clicked into place; it makes perfect sense and it is the kindest possible way of dealing with problem pooches! I knew that this was the only method of behaviour that I wanted to practice. I started trying out the methods on my beautiful mongrel Sandy (pictured) and have never looked back.  I will use this method on any dog I will ever own for the rest of my life - whether they have "problems" or not!
