What to Look for in a Dog Trainer in the East of England
The East of England is home to a wide range of trainers, from puppy class specialists to behaviourists working with reactive or anxious dogs, with many taking advantage of open fenland, coastal paths, and countryside spaces for recall and off-lead training. When choosing a local trainer, look for recognised accreditation (such as ABTC or IMDT registration), confirm they use positive, reward-based methods, and check whether they offer group classes, 1-2-1 sessions, or both. Reading recent reviews from other local dog owners is one of the best ways to judge whether a trainer's approach will suit your dog.
How Much Does Dog Training Cost in the East of England?
Pricing across the East of England is broadly in line with the UK average. Group puppy classes typically range from £10–£18 per session, while 1-2-1 training or behavioural sessions often run £35–£70 per hour, with Hertfordshire and parts of Essex closer to London typically at the higher end, and more rural Norfolk and Suffolk often slightly lower.

Our Story
My name is Clare, and I have always been a lover of dogs. From my childhood days with our rescue puppy Chloe, to my current Golden Retriever Stanley, dogs have always been a part of my life. After a rewarding career as a Police Officer, I pursued my passion for dog training, becoming an accredited dog trainer with the International Association of Animal Behaviour Consultants. With my demo dog Stanley and his little brother Vinnie, I help dogs and their owners overcome challenges and live their best lives together.

suffolk country dog training
Hall Farm, Loddon Rd, Bungay NR35 2HN
07496 680338
Hi, I’m Kate and dogs are a massive part of my life (I have five of them!). I’ve been a dog trainer for 7 years, having worked at a local dog training school offering group classes and behavioural 121s in that time.
I set up Suffolk Country Dog Training in part, to be able to offer and promote UK Dog Sports, in addition to general dog training and behaviour work.
I started my training career by completing an instructor’s course with one of the country’s Master Trainers. During my time with this mentor I expanded my experience and knowledge in a variety of obedience, sports and behaviour work, specialising in reactive dogs. Since then, I have continued my professional development with a level 4 Diploma in Advanced Canine Behaviour through the British College of Canine Studies.
