Relationship Centred Training. International Expertise.

Built on a Foundation of Dog Psychology.

The Dogs Way.

Regional Behaviour Specialists.

With a focus on dog psychology at the core of everything we do, and a dedication to a higher quality of training and education. We’re here for the dogs who need it most.

We work with dogs every day suffering with chronic fears, severe confidence issues, high levels of reactivity & dog on dog aggression, territorial aggression, hyperactivity, & separation anxiety. We are here for the dogs with issues that training and obedience can’t solve, and for the cases that need more support than a local trainer can provide. For the people who want a better relationship and a deeper connection with their dog. Visit us at our dedicated paddocks in Stokesley, North Yorkshire.

Very knowledgeable and had an instant rapport with our dogs. Their behaviour, and how we interact with them has improved as a result. We were almost ready to give up with one of our dogs, but things are so much better now.

James is patient, extremely knowledgeable, insightful and generous with his time. I am so glad we found him to help with our dog. He has given us the confidence and skills to walk her at any time of day, to take her to a café, to have visitors in the house, all of which were almost impossible before we met him. We cannot recommend him highly enough. Thank you, James.

Such a lovely experience for me and my girls. James is open, warm, patient and personable. He has a lovely way with dogs - my girls loved him and I got so much out of it too. I would highly recommend.

Our reputation really matters to us, and we’re proud to be rated 5 stars. Because our favourite clients (The Dogs) can’t write reviews, we’ve left it to their owners to give us their opinion.

James (and The Dogs Way) work miracles! I rehomed my 11 month old Working Cocker Spaniel 2 months ago and it soon became apparent she really struggled with separation anxiety to the point which I couldn’t leave the room for a matter of seconds without her crying and clawing at the door. At a loss for how to resolve this I gave James a call and after the initial phone consultation I had all the confidence in the world if anyone was going to help Cally it would be James. We had a home visit the following week and I was amazed at how quickly Cally took to what James was teaching us. Fast forward to not even 2 weeks since the home visit and I’ve just been able to leave Cally for an hour and a half with absolutely no whimpering, crying, scratching! It genuinely feels like we have a different dog! I couldn’t recommend James and The Dogs Way enough!
