I’m Joe, Bournemouth dog trainer dedicated to helping you build a calm, happy relationship with your dog. From playful puppies to unwanted behaviours, I use positive, modern methods to create balance, trust, and harmony in your home.

At Calm Companions, I provide expert dog training Bournemouth, poole & surrounding areas for families and their dogs, covering everything from early puppy guidance to more challenging behaviours. Whether you’re dealing with unwanted habits or simply want a smoother bond with your dog, I’m here to help.

Using kind, modern training methods, I focus on trust, clear communication, and building confidence on both ends of the lead. My goal is simple: to give you the tools and support you need so life with your dog feels harmonious, stress-free, and full of tail wags.

I’ve had dogs for over 25 years, and my passion has always been helping them become happy, well-behaved family companions. With two children of my own, I understand just how important it is to have a calm, reliable dog that fits perfectly into family life.

At Calm Companions, I specialise in dog training Bournemouth, Poole and surrounding areas. Offering support with everything from recall and loose-lead walking to anxious behaviours and puppy foundations. My training is positive, modern, and designed to build trust, confidence, and a strong bond between you and your dog.

By laying the right foundations from the very start, life with your dog becomes calmer, easier, and far more enjoyable—for both you and your furry companion.
