Assistenzhundeschule in der Schweiz
Endlich haben wir in der Schweiz wieder eine kompetente Assistenzhundetrainerin. Von Kindesbeinen an war das Training mit Tieren Anja Jansens Leidenschaft. Zuerst hat sie ihre Mäuse und später Wachteln trainiert. Ihre Lieblingswachtel begleitete sie den ganzen Tag auf ihrer Schulter sitzend und das Wachtelhähnchen konnte auf Kommando krähen. Dann folgte das Training mit Hunden. Heute lässt sie ihren Border-Collie-Rüden Milo zum Therapiehund ausbilden.
Ihre zweite Leidenschaft ist die Psychologie, der sie durch ein Psychologiestudium an der Universität Zürich nachgeht. Sie ist überzeugt, dass ihr das Wissen, was sie im Psychologiestudium lernt, hilft, Menschen mit ihren individuellen Besonderheiten besser verstehen und dadurch die Trainingsinhalte optimal anleiten zu können.
Anja Jansen unterstützt dich gerne bei der Auswahl und Ausbildung deines Assistenzhundes. Dabei passt sie die Trainingseinheiten nicht nur dem Trainingsstand des Hundes an, sondern auch deinen persönlichen Bedürfnissen. Kontaktiere deine Assistenzhundetrainerin in Winterthur, um dich von ihr zu den Möglichkeiten eines Assistenzhundes beraten zu lassen. Winterthur
