OUR dog training services in teesside & North Yorkshire
We offer a range of dog training services across Teesside and North Yorkshire, from reactivity and behaviour work to puppy training and everyday obedience.
Reactivity Bootcamp
Small Group Training for Reactive Dogs
Our Reactivity Bootcamp is designed for dogs that bark, lunge or react on walks. With a max of 4 dogs per group, we create a controlled environment where your dog can learn to stay calm around other dogs, people and everyday triggers.
This is ideal for dogs showing lead reactivity, frustration or overexcitement in real-world situations.
One - to - One Sessions
Tailored Training for Complex Behaviours
Our one-to-one sessions provide personalised support for dogs with more intense or specific behavioural challenges. This could include reactivity in the home, nervous dogs, separation anxiety or complex triggers.
We build a training plan around your dog and your individual circumstances - giving you clear, practical steps to follow.
Group Classes
Structured Training for Everyday Skills
Our group classes are perfect for building strong foundations including puppy training, recall and heel work.
These sessions help your dog learn to focus, stay calm and neutral in a structured environment - supporting long-term behaviour and preventing future behavioural issues.

About Joe
Hi, I'm Joe - Dog Behaviourist, Trainer and Founder of Canine Connections Teesside.
I've spent years working hands-on with dogs, including rescuing and rehabilitating 8 of my own. This real-world experience shaped my approach to reactive dog training, behaviour issues and confidence building.
I understand how overwhelming behaviour challenges can feel, especially with so much conflicting advice online. That's why my training focuses on clear guidance, calm methods and helping you understand the "why" behind your dog's behaviour.
Our Mission
To help you build a calmer, more connected relationship with your dog through structured training, support and practical solutions that work in real life.
