I first contacted Charles a year ago when I first got my 2 year old Australian Shepherd while living in the UK . His advice and support helped immensely getting him settle in to his new home and owner- both Goji and I learned alot and genuinely changed my life. I now live in New Zealand, and needed help with recall and fine tuning a few other behaviours. Charles organised a video call at short notice and again his advice and guidance was life changing- we are now both living our best life here in NZ. Thanks Charles. I highly recommend you and your very straightforward and clear guidance- the impact is almost immediate

We have had a handful of sessions with Charles now and my only wish is that we would have reached out to him sooner. He not only has helped us give our dog confidence and a second chance at life but has also given us the confidence to keep going too. Thank you Charles.

I can’t say enough good things about Charles. My dog was having issue walking on lead and feeling anxious. After the first session my dog was walking on lead perfectly and walking with much more confidence ! I was then able to carry on with the training techniques Charles taught me and I can now walk my pup without having to worry.

I had a very negative experience with this man. His brusque manner made me feel uncomfortable and his brutal training methods have left my dog traumatised and in need of medical attention. Before you engage with him, ask for his qualifications and credentials. He only seems to have five star reviews on here!. I have written two negative reviews thus far and both have been 'flagged' and needed to be deleted.

We recently adopted a lovely dog from the Dogs Trust. We found we had great difficulty walking her, because of excessive pulling and aggressive behaviour to other dogs. Also she was terrified of the car. We found Charles on line and it is the best decision we ever made. He is a miracle worker, we now have a dog we can walk!!

One visit from Charles and our lives are transformed! Eveything we learned from him has enabled us to to set clear boundaries with Erik, re-train his behaviours and enhance all our lives. Erik was always a good dog, however, he became too domineering and needed to re-learn his place in our pack. We are now confident in continuing to be consistant and clear. I honestly think we needed the training as much as Erik! What I loved most about Charles's intervention, is the fact that there is continuos support and advice either via phone, message or additional visits. Thank you Charles x

We would highly recommend Charles for his clear and patient training sessions with us and our 16 month old cocker spaniel, Maple. She now walks much better on a loose lead on a road walk and is much calmer in the house when she comes back from a walk and settles down straight away. By putting in place all the training tips Charles suggested has helped her become a much calmer dog. We will continue to put all these suggestions in place. Thank you Charles.

Charles visited us a month ago and within a short amount of time assessed that we’d let our dog give herself the job of protecting us. This lead to her being reactive and not looking to us for any instruction. He gave us some simple but clear advice and practical ways to address this along with demonstrating how to achieve loose lead walking and the timing of the training. We’ve seen a marked improvement in her and walking is now a pleasure as she mostly ignores other dogs and people. We are now embarking on the next steps to get the chaotic greeting given to any guests under control! Would highly recommend Charles, he seems to be able to look at the situation and assess the problem so quickly. The training advice given has been invaluable.

I decided to buy my wife a Sprocker Spaniel for her birthday last year! What a challenge he is!! Unfortunately he has some serious resource guarding issues and has bitten multiple times! (He is now 1 years old) We decided to call out for help last week and Charles came to our rescue. I can honestly say from the first moment he saw our puppy, he knew we had our hands full! Charles spent over 3 hours explaining clearly why the behaviour is happening and more importantly how we can change it. He went through all the other issues we reeled off one by one with clear instructions. It has now been a week and I can honestly say our boy is a changed dog. A lot happier, walking to heel on a lead (incredible for a Spaniel). We have had a few other issues which we talked about afterwards, always with good clear advice! It’s worth its weight in gold having Charles in my contacts! I can’t recommend him enough, my only regret is not calling him earlier. 5 star service, thanks Charles.

Contact your Norfolk Dog Trainer

Dog trainer Norwich — if you’re based in Norfolk and struggling with your dog’s behaviour, get in touch. I personally review every enquiry and reply within 24 hours..

How to Get in Touch with a Dog Trainer in Norwich

Fill in the enquiry form or call directly on 07438 340058. Every enquiry is personally reviewed — you won’t get an automated response or a generic reply. If your case is suitable, you’ll hear back within 24 hours with a clear outline of how I can help.

I cover the whole of Norfolk and travel to you wherever you are based.
I regularly work across Norwich and all surrounding suburbs including Sprowston, Thorpe St Andrew, Hellesdon, Costessey, Bowthorpe, Old Catton and Taverham.
Further afield I cover King’s Lynn, Thetford, Dereham, Wymondham, Attleborough, Watton, Swaffham, Downham Market, Fakenham, North Walsham, Aylsham, Wroxham, Holt, Sheringham, Cromer, Hunstanton and Gorleston.

If you are unsure whether I cover your area, just call me on 07438 340058 or send a message using the contact form above. In the vast majority of cases the answer will be yes.
No part of Norfolk is too far — I have built my reputation on coming to you, working in your home, and getting results that last.

Dog Trainer Norwich

What Happens After You Enquire

Once I’ve reviewed your enquiry, I’ll confirm availability and book an in-home session at a time that suits you. Sessions take place at your property — I come to you.

Most behavioural cases are resolved in a single visit. You’ll leave the session with a clear set of rules and techniques you can implement immediately. Results are typically visible within hours.

If the problem isn’t resolved after two visits, I continue working with you at no extra cost. That’s the guarantee.

Every case I take on is different. A reactive Spaniel in Taverham needs a different approach to a dominant German Shepherd in King’s Lynn. That is why every session is built entirely around your dog, your home, and your family — not a generic programme designed for the average case.
I have resolved cases that vets, rescue centres, and other trainers have failed to fix. If your dog has a behavioural problem, the chances are I can help.
Getting in touch takes less than a minute. Fill in the contact form with your name, email, and a brief description of the problem you are experiencing with your dog. The more detail you give me, the better placed I am to help.
Alternatively, call me directly on 07438 340058. I cover all of Norfolk including Norwich, King’s Lynn, Thetford, Dereham and every town and village in between.
Whether your dog is a puppy developing bad habits or an adult dog with a long-standing behavioural problem, the sooner you get in touch the sooner things will improve. I look forward to hearing from you.

Dog Trainer Norwich — What I Work With

I specialise in dogs that other trainers haven’t been able to help. Common cases include:

  • Aggression — towards people, other dogs, or specific triggers
  • Reactivity — pulling, lunging, barking on lead
  • Anxiety — separation anxiety, fearfulness, destructive behaviour
  • Dominance — resource guarding, refusal to comply, pushback behaviour

If your dog has a behavioural problem and previous training hasn’t worked, get in touch.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can’t find what you’re looking for?
Get in touch with any questions.

What makes your training different from group classes?
Plus Icon

My training is 100% one-on-one, allowing personalised focus on your dog without distractions from other dogs. Each session is conducted in your home, ensuring a comfortable environment for effective learning.

How do you tailor the training for each dog?
Plus Icon

I begin with an in-depth home visit to understand your dog’s environment and behaviours. From there, I create a customised plan that suits your dog’s personality and specific needs, using proven, humane methods.

What issues can your training help resolve?
Plus Icon

My program covers a wide range of challenges, including recall issues, leash pulling, separation anxiety, excessive barking, aggression, hyperactivity, and more. Each plan is designed to eliminate the issues that matter most to you.

What commitment is required from me?
Plus Icon

Training success relies on daily reinforcement. I work closely with you to create a realistic plan, and if adjustments are needed, I offer free phone consultations to ensure both you and your dog are on the path to success.

What can I expect from the initial session?
Plus Icon

Our journey begins with a 2.0-3.0 hour home visit to discuss your goals, observe your dog’s behaviour, and build a customised plan. This foundation helps ensure the training is effective, enjoyable, and tailored to your lifestyle.

What will happen during the training session?
Plus Icon

The session will last for 2.0-3.0 hours and take place in and around your home. During this time, I will have an in-depth discussion with you about the issues you are facing and the dog’s background, including any medical issues. Thereafter I will begin the training with as many members of the household present as possible, so I can teach you the appropriate tips and techniques to use following my visit. The training will also include an explanation of what your dog’s needs are to enable it to have a relaxed and respectful relationship. Thereafter I provide FREE TELEPHONE ADVICE for the duration of the dog’s life. I will of course, gladly return for a second visit but in 90% of cases I only need to see my clients once.
