About Me

Denise Devereux Bsc (Hons) Canine Behaviour Management, FdSc ACBT, Adv CBM Specialist Dog Trainer & Behaviourist

I got into dog behaviour when I rescued my first dog Bear he didn't have any training, displayed most dog behaviour problems and was scared of half of life. We were turned down for classes because of his behaviour which made me determined to prove them wrong. I started learning about dog behaviour but the more I learnt the more I became fascinated in the subject. I started my journey academically completing a Foundation Diploma in Canine Behaviour Training, then went onto complete the Advanced Diploma in Canine Behaviour and Management in 2016. Through this time me & Bear worked upto a Gold in the Good Citizen Dog Scheme through the Kennel Club. I also began volunteering for Blue Cross as an Educational Speaker.

To date I have-

• Completed Bsc (Hons) Canine Behaviour at Bishop Burton 2023

• Completed FdSc Canine Behaviour and Training in 2021

• Member of Pet Professional Guild & The Pet Professional Network

• Approved Instructor through Dog Training College

• Student member of APBC and ASAB

• Accredited Detection Dog Handler and Scentwork Instructor through the UK College of Scent Dogs

• Assistance Dog Trainer for Pawsable (Owner Trained Assistance Dogs)

​​

I have dedicated my life to being able to help owners with dogs that are otherwise considered write offs.

Every dog and every owner is capable of change with the right guidance and support.

College 4 Canines was set up to allow people that cant attend training classes due to not driving or because their dog isn't 'suitable' for class environment to still have access to professional positive training.

All of our sessions are based at the clients home we offer Behavioural training throughout Northumberland & Newcastle. Our Dog Training Classes & Puppy Classes are based at the Isabella Community Centre, Blyth.
