There are one-to-one sessions available for dog owners, in addition to the chance to speak with pet professionals.

The group is specifically for dog owners and those in attendance are asked if their furry friends can stay at home during the sessions.

Kate Osborne, Labour MP for Jarrow and Gateshead East, posted about the group on Facebook.

She said: “Whether you're struggling with a particular concern or simply want to talk to other dog owners, you're very welcome.“
