The Dogfather is coming to Edinburgh, hold onto your leashes everyone!

Graeme Hall: The Dogfather Live On Stage will be heading to Queen's Hall on May 26 to show off training tips, TV show memories and an intimate Q&A for all audience members to ask questions.

With more than 10 years’ experience, a list of celebrity clients, and regular TV appearances on the likes of BBC Breakfast and ITV’s This Morning, Hall has it all in terms of wisdom on dogs and puppies alike.

And he is ready to share this knowledge with the people of Edinburgh, in order to get their pets in line.

The show is described as: "A Master Dog Trainer with the Guild of Dog Trainers he provides quick but long-lasting fixes to almost any dog behavioral problem - his motto is 'Any dog, any age, any problem.."

Speaking on the show, Hall said: “I’m thrilled to be adding extra shows to the tour. For years I’ve been training dogs in village halls and in people’s living rooms, and more recently on TV.

"I’ve had the chance to write books and record podcasts, now finally I get to do something I’ve always wanted to do.

“I’ll be sharing the lessons I’ve learnt from training thousands of dogs, and telling more than a few funny stories along the way, in my first UK tour. I can’t wait.

"Come along, learn something and have a laugh with me.”

This is Hall's first tour of the UK, and he has admitted the nerves surrounding this experience.

Graeme added: "I’m excited and nervous. I’ve done a few book tours but it’s the first time I’ll have been on stage in front of such large crowds. I’m used to chatting to an audience but not a whole theatre’s worth.

"As I always say to people with dogs, ‘If you’re feeling a bit nervous do your best not to show it’ so that’s what I’ll be doing.

"And I’m really excited about getting out there. If you have a bit of fun and you go away having learned something about your dog then we’re on to a winner.”

In the first half of his The Dogfather Live on Stage 2022 show Hall will take the audience through his golden rules of dog training and how owners can best change their pet’s attitude into some paw-fect behavious, with examples drawn from real life plus behind-the-scenes anecdotes.

Part two will be the audience-driven Q&A.
