John Uncle is a well-known London-based canine behaviour expert. He has been involved in professional dog-training since the early 1970s. He runs the London Canine Training Establishment in Muswell Hill, a district of north London. John has lectured and instructed dog trainers across Britain, Europe, America, India and Japan.
Uncle was one of the first instructors to lecture for the International Earthquake and Mountain Rescue teams in Switzerland. In the Netherlands he introduced the Prevent-a-bite programme and instructed in silent training for agility. In 2001 he ran a two-week residential course in India and lectured to over 200 Japanese dog instructors, vets and dog owners in October of the same year. He has given talks at the Royal Veterinary College and numerous training clubs and universities across Britain. His knowledge and insight into dogs has attracted much media interest and he continues to write for publications including Kennel Club Gazette and Dog Training Weekly.
In 1993 Uncle helped to form the PREVENT-A-BITE programme, which has toured schools in Britain, teaching students and teachers about canine/human interaction and showing people how to live and communicate with dogs in a safe way.
Uncle has established a strong relationship with many international dog training schools. Students from the Thistle school in Tokyo have regularly visited LCTE in London for several years now, attracted by John's hands-on approach and willingness to tackle the problem dogs that some instructors refuse to work with.
