Jan Fennell - The Dog Listener (DVD)

I decided to buy this DVD, as i had been to a local Dog day and Jan Fennell was there. I had never heard of her, and when she explained a bit about her theories she had on dogs i thought she made a lot of sense. I was going to buy one of her books but saw the DVD and decided that it would be better than a book for going over things i had forgot.

She understands the language of dogs, and explains it to you. It all makes perfect sense. I do believe if you buy one of her books or DVDs you will agree with me.

It shows Jan at work with families and their dogs and her son features in it too.

I decided to buy this as it is a lot cheaper than buying one from her website.

I bought this because I enjoyed her tv series and books. She has adapted the work of Monty Roberts who worked with horses and their natural language to the dog (from studying wolf natural language). The dvd clearly explains how to mimic the natural language of the wolf to communicate to your dog that you are its pack leader (no howling involved!!), thereby reducing its stress/problems as the dog can now relax and change jobs to follower. Simple things like eating a biscuit just before you feed your dog as in wolf packs the alpha eats first, and not giving your dog affection/attention until the dog is calm and submissive and never on their terms.

I admire her work and wish she had a new tv series. Also recommend watching Cesar Milan 'The Dog Whisperer' who is fab.

this dvd is fantastic if you dont think this will not work then your wrong i have 7 dogs and i had results in just one day. this lady is very good and what she says makes sence.

This DVD was really useful in understanding how to train my puppy. It clearly explained the 4 main techiques to make your dog view you as pack leader, which makes for a happier life for everyone! I would recommend his DVD, especially in conjunction with her books.

As usual Jan Fennel is brilliant in her techniques, the book was just as good. The DVD offers the customer the chance to see how she handles each situation, with her son in law also on the dvd offering advice it is a very uplifting fountain of knowledge.

I have put into practise some of the advice and it is helping tremendously.

Having had a 'home visit' from one of Jan's trainers it was great to get this DVD and be able to sit and review all the information we had been given at leisure. Jan and her son Tony take you through the steps you need to follow to understand your dog and why it behaves the way it does. With extracts from sessions Jan has had with other dog owners, you see first hand the technique used to learn how to communicate in 'canine'. Never mind training your dog, this is all about training YOU to be a better owner and make life for you and your dog happy and rewarding. A useful tool to keep revisiting to check that you are doing it all right.

Fantastic dvd for any dog lover and owner. Decided on this dvd after reading two of Jan Fennel books. Also highly recommended.
There are many problems that dog owners face whether it be basic training of your puppy, dogs walking the owner rather than the other way around, dogs jumping up at guests to the house and nervous dogs. The list goes on! But watch this dvd and watch how simply these problems can go away when taking on Jan Fennells approach which is a way of letting dogs do things of their own free will and not being punished or forced. The method seems simple by going back to the dogs roots of the wolf and its pack. Every dog (like a wolf) needs an alpha or a leader to look up to and respect. Jan demonstrates how problems with dogs arise when the dog believes he is the leader. The tables need to be turned. (No force or punisment involved)

Amazing results to watch and then try on your dog. It works! I followed the same method on my Jack Russell.

You won't be disapointed with this DVD!

This DVD makes you understand your dogs way of thinking and guides you through ways to make your dog the best it can be.

Jan is easy to understand, she explains that we're the one's to train how to look after and control the dog, once you're the boss things are simple.

This is a fantastic dvd that tells you how to train your dog the correct way. By using the dogs natural language.  Jan is a fab person who has found a way to deal with every problem that your dog has - no hitting no shouting no violence and no gadgets. And the best thing is - it WORKS.  So forget the park training get a Jan fennell dog listener to solve your doggy problems.  Please see Jan fennells web page for further details.  Jan fennell dog listener are the future watch this space.

I like this dvd as it is informative,but I did notice a few mistakes like trying to stop the alsation from barking at visitors, the owner stroked the dog after it barked before it was taken out of the room and the labradors where allowed up the steps before the owner, these are all very important things to NOT do. The interveiw was very good for anyone who does dog training like me.good dvd for beginners.
