A wonderful foundation for our German Shepherd puppy. Kind and warm atmosphere, clear instructions and encouragement and super fun for the dogs. Highly recommend this course,

The trainers are lovely and I found it to be a brilliant course. I would definitely recommend.

Great course We learned so much – dogs and owners. The opportunity to work your dog in a safe environment with other dogs is particularly helpful. Classes are a sensible size and seeing how other owners and dogs progress is very satisfying. And of course very enjoyable too!

This is a great course. Plenty of space, friendly instructors and a relaxed atmosphere.

The course has provided me with a really good toolbox of basic skills which I can use in a variety of situations. It has given both myself and Lola confidence with everyday skills and we will carry on with the exercises. The progression in 8 weeks has been amazing.

I found the classes to be lovely, friendly and informative. No pressure training and fun for all.

The classes were engaging, fun and really supportive. All of the advice was really friendly & informative. I’d highly recommend this for everyone.

We’ve been to several different trainers over the years but Grahame is a head and shoulders above the rest!

I found this to be a good course for good outside behaviour.  The trainers are very good too.

I am the first deaf person to take this course and would recommend it to other deaf dog owners. They are very patient

Grahame and Sarah are superb and very patient.  Finn has progressed so much in such a short space of time. Both the dog and I have learnt so much.  I would highly recommend to anyone.

I have been to many trainers over the years and Grahame is by far the best. Well explained instructions and easy to follow commands. Great facility. We look forward to seeing you again. Sarah, had lots of fun with you.

The training was really helpful and we have seen lots of improvements in our puppy. Our 12 year old son was involved and his confidence has improved loads in handling our puppy.

Grahame is a great trainer. They are lovely people. We were taught a lot in 8 weeks.

I found the classes to be focussed, practical and patient. These are just what Honor (and me) needed.

I found the classes to be very informative. Excellent content. The classes were small and effective class size. Grahame and Sarah are wonderful people who are knowledgeable and supportive. I would highly recommend these classes.

The classes are informative as well as practical and are tailored to meet the needs of all in the class, dogs & owners Friendly and informative with achievable goals.

I thought that the 8 week basic obedience classes were very well structured. The training was held at good facilities too.

Really knowledgeable and friendly trainers with a love and passion or what they do and the dogs.

I liked the size of the class. It was helpful to get some basic training for our 8  month old Labrador. The socialising with other dogs is kept minimal which allowed us to focus on keeping our dogs attention which we found to be great. Grahame and Sarah are lovely. Ask them any questions – they know a lot about dogs!

My dog is completely transformed since attending the classes and is so much easier to handle. Thank you so much. It was a very friendly class too.

Our 4 year old rescue rescue terrier had been asked to leave training at another centre because they said he was “untrainable”! he had also been to a one to one training session at a different centre but they found Einstein too challenging. Grahame fixed Einstein within a week or two and was patient and kind instructor. Grahame managed to train our “untrainable” dog.

Grahame is passionate and knowledgeable. He is very good at training you to train your dog.

The course was very helpful in improving and advancing my dogs basic skills. Easy steps for progress and clear instructions.

Very friendly classes. We were able to encourage the dogs to improve and build their confidence. I saw  big change in our dog.

Really friendly trainers with a lot of experience. It was a pleasure to be a part of an amazing training journey.

The extensive knowledge and experience of NDTS shines through with the course. I highly recommend it.

This training has combined practical training for everyday challenges with basis for show. It has kept my dogs brain engaged and given us the opp0rtunity to understand dog behaviours.  It was an amazing course with friendly and encouraging trainers.

I really enjoyed the course and found it to be very helpful and friendly.

I wanted to do this group class for the “group” aspect. As Coco is very social. Not only did we learn from the intended lessons but Coco is far better day to day and no longer insists in greeting everyone we meet on walks. I waited 2 years to attend this class and it was worth the wait.

A very enjoyable course from an experienced instructor. A nice amount of dogs in the class all focused and improving together.

I thought the course was excellent for introducing obedience and discipline training that trains the owner and makes your dog enjoy the whole experience.

I found the classes very helpful and friendly.  I learned a lot and hope to return for future training

Great friendly atmosphere whilst being keeping the classes professional and knowledgeable. Highly recommended.

I liked how much everything was explained especially on the basics.

My dog and I really enjoyed the course. We both made progress over the  8 weeks. I would recommend the course and I am looking forward to doing more training.

I really enjoyed the classes and Flash did too! It has been really helpful and I have learnt so much. Grahame and Sarah were good teachers and I have gained lots of confidence.

Cosmo, my dog really looked forward to the classes each week.

As always its a fun course and informative. Owners and puppies learn loads. Highly recommend these classes. Stonking!

This I found to be an excellent course. Grahame was very patient, positive and the repeated demonstrations were very useful. Notes given out were appreciated too. Class size was good and excellent facilities.

Grahame is a great trainer who is kind and patient as well as knowledgeable. Perfect for those with anxiety. Ash was a stubborn pup but has grown to be a handsome obedient lad and a completely different dog.

Our dog came into the training classes very nervous of both people and other dogs but within only a couple of weeks was walking in crowded areas, ignoring other dogs and concentrating on our newly learnt commands.

The training classes were excellent. Barky is now much more responsive and really enjoyed the training. This training course is thoroughly recommended.

My dog was very nervous on this lead and near other dogs and would react. Grahame and Sarah have given us both more confidence and lead walks are so much better now.

Both myself and Jake (my black Labrador) enjoyed our time at Norwich Dog Training School. Grahame was very patient and explained things very well. Jake is now educated – shame it didn’t work on me!

This course was a perfect beginners course for my Cane Corso. I will be going on with more training with Norwich Dog Training School. The knowledge is 10 to none.

A friendly and helpful course with a mixture of dogs that all got along. Was fun and informative.

I found the classes to be of good quality and friendly obedience training. A great beginners class for training your dog.

I found the classes very informative and easy to understand. The classes are for people who really want to do the best for their dog.

Grahame and Sarah have been very kind and patient throughout. Our dog has finished the course with great progress achieved.

Paddy and I have had such a great time coming to training classes. We have both learnt loads.

I found the starter course excellent. Allowances were made for my “difficult” dog.

Having a dog that sometimes had difficulty meeting other dogs, the course was of great benefit to him and myself. Great fun and would fully recommend the course to anyone.

My dog was extremely nervous and untrained but after the course we have a dog to be proud of.

We really enjoyed the class from the start.  The improvement in Bimini’s heel work is immeasurable and good fun too. We hope to continue training in the near future.

I really enjoyed each training session. My dog is now far superior because of these. Well considered and structured lessons. Low pressure and high success achieved

It was great to be able to train with my dog in such a safe environment

We both found the course very informative and helpful.

When we arrived for the first lesson I had an unruly pup. Now I have a well behaved one. I also enjoyed doing stuff that focused on me as I’m quite anxious.

What a lovely friendly helpful couple! The course far exceeded our expectations and it is suitable for any dog of any age. We have learnt such a lot and really grown in confidence with our dog handling. I would recommend to anyone to join the NDTS family.

I loved the course and so did Scooby. We both learnt so much!!

We were really struggling with our dog and her reactivity. We found Norwich Dog Training School instructors brilliant, they helped us with our confidence and approach and we found the course really helpful. We were amazed at the progress both we and our dog made. We will be returning for further training.

I very much enjoyed the course. Nice small group, meaning lots of attention, particularly like the close work around other dogs which helped focus work. Grahame & Sarah are very welcoming and take time with you.

The 8 week course is well worth doing as it’s such a learning curve for both myself & my dog Bobby.

The trainers are fantastic and they have helped my nervous dog come a very long way in only 8 weeks. It was a small class with lots of personal attention, advice and corrections.

It was a small group of friendly faces and dogs. We had a real experienced and knowledgeable instructor. Safe environment to learn new skills to practice at home. Thank you!

I joined the class to ease Franco’s nervousness around crowds and was a success. I entered him in a dog show through the course and Franco was a star. Great friendly service suited for all breed of dogs. Thanks to Grahame and Sarah’s hard passionate work.

Harley loved the training and was very excited. We found it fun, hard work but worth it.

A really enjoyable and informative course that had us both working. We feel like a team now and the training has been put to use in the real world when needed.

Our dog and ourselves really enjoyed the training. There were lots of exercises that maintained interest. We are both a lot more confident in our relationship with our dog who was a confused rescue dog.

I really enjoyed this course. Alfie achieved far more than I ever expected. Grahame was so knowledgeable, professional and friendly. He gave us all so much of his time – above and beyond. I highly recommend him. His wife Sarah was so friendly and approachable too. Great experience.

Sadly I missed a couple of sessions but Sarah kept in touch and emailed me the notes so I didn’t miss out. Small class which was great. Made to feel very welcome.

The classes were in a great setting. I refer it to “Strictly for Dogs” lol

The training with my XL Bully has been great. I have learnt a lot on the 8 week course. Very friendly too.

This has been an excellent course and very rewarding. It has really helped to firm up basic commands and helped with my dogs reactivity. Would highly recommend these classes.

Grahame and Sarah were very welcoming and supportive. If I ever had any questions they would always find a way to explain it to the group.

The 8 week classes were great fun experience for both owner and puppy. Grahame and Sarah are friendly and very knowledgeable in training all different dogs. Would really recommend the classes.

The 8 week classes have a lovely relaxed atmosphere. Great location and facilities.

We joined the course to improve our recall and bond but I have learnt so much more and Denton has improved hugely. A real rewarding experience.

I received great practical tips from the 8 week classes. I took lots of things away to use every day. Small and simple things to implement with a big impact.

Millie has improved week after week after coming to classes. We loved doing the classes. Thank you so much.

I think this course is outstanding. My confidence has grown and Ollie is a different dog. The course was more than I expected and I want to do more. Thank you to all and I really enjoyed the 8 week training classes. Thank you!!

The course was great and not just for my dog Missy but the owner as well. Missy really enjoyed it and we both learnt so much.

I found the classes really interesting.  Being a novice I was a little worried but Grahame & Sarah were very knowledgeable, patient and welcoming.

I came to training classes very nervous about my dog being hard work and ruining the classes. I was instantly made welcome and was accommodated for.  I am so much happier with my dog after the 8 week classes.

Oakley and I have loved our Saturday training morning classes. We are able to use all what we’ve learnt when we are out and about in the real world. Thank you for everything.

I’ve been on this course several times with my many puppies/doggies. All I would say is that it is “stonking”

The 8 week class was incredibly knowledgeable and the classes were a huge benefit in terms of structure and training.

My girl Storm was an extremely reactive German Shepherd.  Grahame has given Storm the training she so desperately needed.  The classes have been an absolute game changer for me and her.  We will continue to train with Grahame. Invaluable lessons learnt. 100% recommend the 8 week classes.

Grahame is a knowledgeable dog trainer, who can teach both beginners and experienced dog owners how to get the best foundation with their/our dogs training.

Norwich Dog Training School are friendly and knowledgeable.  I have a little rescue dog who was nervous and unable to walk on a lead.  He is now a changed dog, walks lovely and getting used to other dogs.  I highly recommend using these guys.

I came as a stand in for my partner initially  when she was ill but I ended up doing the whole course.  I didn’t expect to learn so much with Benny (and for me) so I am really pleased. I highly recommend this class.

We are now looking forward to continuing training in your advance classes and I have recommended you to two other dog owners

We really enjoyed our training with you! It was very informative and helpful.  Woody has improved his obedience and loved meeting other dogs too!  Thank you so much

The course was a great way to meet other dogs as well as learning basic obedience

Really enjoyable course with very knowledgeable, friendly and welcoming trainers that treat you more like friends than just clients.  Thoroughly recommend and will be returning.

The training that my dog and I have received is fabulous. We have both learnt and achieved so much.  Thanks to Grahame & Sarah’s knowledge & patience.

I found it an informative course. My dog is transformed and we had fun.

We brought our 12 week old Newfoundland puppy to the 8 week obedience class.  As first time dog owners we had a lot to learn and a lot of questions.  Sarah & Grahame were great teachers and the course really went above my expectations. I would recommend this if it’s your first or twentieth dog!

Brilliant course. Grahame & Sarah are very knowledgeable. They impart their knowledge in a fun way with anecdotes. We would heartily recommend the course.

This is a friendly and comprehensive course.  The class is small which helps learning of both the owners and dogs!  I would highly recommend this to everyone who needs a little help.

It is a very enjoyable course. We will definitely be back with future dogs.

I found Grahame to be very knowledgeable & friendly.

Really nice atmosphere to train your dog in.  No pressure but progressive learning for both the dog and owner.

We have really enjoyed the training classes. It has helped us so much with our pup.  He has learnt lots in a short space of time and gets very excited to come to class.  The advice and support has been really helpful and we are looking forward to continuing the training.

I would highly recommend this great course. They are very friendly.

Amazing 8 weeks at Norwich Dog Training School. We covered all the material needed to support our first dog.  Grahame and Sarah were wonderful and highly knowledgeable.

I love Grahame. He’s so patient and encouraging. He clearly loves what he does and is so helpful and informative.

I found this course incredibly useful in training my dog.  I really appreciated the friendly approach with my retired Greyhound.

I found the training course excellent. I really enjoyed the content. The trainer was very patient with me & Molly and made the course.

We achieved all that we wanted. Ella has improved in all departments.

I am very grateful for the trainers and happy I joined the course. Having a Husky/GSD isn’t easy but NDTS have helped me significantly. They really give you the time and patience to enable you to grow your confidence

My dog much improved with all aspects on the obedience training classes. Excellent course.

This course was fantastic for both me and my puppy.  We learnt so much and bonded along the way too. Grahame & Sarah are both so knowledgeable and really care about your dog.

Our dog loved coming each week to learn new skills and socialize with other dogs.  Friendly trainers. Would highly recommend.

Professional, friendly and my dog absolutely loved it. Thank you so much for being brilliant and for loving dogs.

I really enjoyed the training.  Our dog enjoys every session and has learnt so much from our experience. I highly recommend it. Lovely people and a beneficial course.

The 8 week basic obedience class was very informative and helpful.

The group was lovely and small.  Grahame and Sarah always had time to demonstrate and deal with problems and answer any questions.

I really liked the fact that in the class we had a mixed ages and breeds of dogs/puppies which was really especially useful for the socialization part training. I also really liked the “real world” situations in the classes.

Loki and Ireally enjoyed the course.  Grahame is very patient and kind and doesn’t hesitate to show you a specific trick four times if needed.  I really liked the “real life” situations where we trained with distractions such as people and other dogs.  It really helped us help Loki settle down in the park, pub etc.  Thank you so much Grahame!

Sandy, Chris and I have thoroughly enjoyed the course and we’ve all learnt so much.  We would not hesitate to recommend Norwich Dog Training School to our friends.

I enjoyed the whole course.  Informative sheets were given out which are really helpful.  Didn’t feel anything negative if we did anything “wrong”.  Would 100% recommend and hope to do follow on training.  Grahame and Sarah are lovely and made us feel welcome and all at ease.

We received friendly advice and the trainers were friendly.

We cannot thank Grahame & Sarah enough for the support and encouragement they have offered to us both and our once very timid, scatty and nervous Romanian Rescue.  She is the apple of our eye and has found her true self – an energetic, happy and confident dog.  Thank you from all 3 of us!

Excellent training course. Our puppy has learnt so much and has become so much more confident.  Would highly recommend.

Owner and dog have gained a lot of new knowledge and the relationship is now much stronger. It is a very enjoyable course.

I would thoroughly recommend this class/course to others.

We both really enjoyed our class and have made good progress. It has been fun learning and the other class members were good fun too.

Grahame is a very experienced dog trainer who shares lots of knowledge over and beyond the course subjects.

Grahame is a very talented and knowledgeable trainer. We looked forward to our classes each week and learnt a lot.

My young puppy and I have learnt so much. The trainers have made it so much fun. We shall certainly carry on training.

Grahame and Sarah are very patient,welcoming and informative. I enjoyed bringing Jazzy to training classes. It brought out her confidence and she learnt a lot. I’m pleased with her progress.

Both me and my Cockapoo Eddie have enjoyed the course and we have benefited us both enormously especially with his behaviour.

We found the 8 week class very helpful and informative. Sometimes it was hard to hear with dogs barking.

Owner and dog have gained a lot of new knowledge and the relationship is now much stronger. It is a very enjoyable course.
