I’m Charles Gray, a professional dog trainer in Norwich
I specialise in behaviour-focused dog training with owner education. I work with a select number of dogs and owners at any one time, so every client gets my full attention and a highly personalised service.
Everything I do is carried out in a friendly, comfortable, judgement-free environment. My role is to help, not to criticise — no matter what challenges you and your dog are facing, you’ll be treated with patience, understanding, and respect.
My approach
No stopwatch, just results
I don’t work to a timer. My sessions last as long as it takes to make meaningful progress — generally two to three hours, but with no set time limit. I work with you in attendance, explaining exactly what I’m doing, why I’m doing it, and what I’m looking for from your dog, so you leave confident and ready to continue the progress at home.
Most owners see improvements within the first session, often within the first hour. My methods are practical and results-driven, showing you simple, real-world techniques that fit into your day-to-day life — all in a relaxed, stress-free atmosphere for both you and your dog.
Where the training happens
Training begins in and around your home, so your dog learns in the environment where the behaviour naturally happens. If your dog’s issue involves reactivity, we’ll also work in public areas where we can safely recreate the situations that trigger the unwanted behaviour and address it in real time.
