Graeme Hall, widely known as 'The Dogfather', is a famous dog trainer, television personality, best-selling author, and dynamic keynote speaker. With his pragmatic yet engaging approach to canine behavioural issues, Graeme captivates diverse audiences worldwide. His humorous storytelling and practical advice have notably gained popularity through his long-standing role as presenter on Channel 5’s hit series Dogs Behaving (Very) Badly, which has reached global audiences across Europe, Africa, Asia, North America, and Australia.
Graeme’s early career was rooted far from canine behaviour, initially embarking on a successful 21-year journey as a senior management consultant at Weetabix Limited. This corporate tenure significantly shaped his perspectives on leadership and communication. However, during gardening leave from this corporate role, Graeme discovered his passion for dog training, leading him to professionally transition into canine psychology and subsequently founding his acclaimed training business, The Dogfather.
Graeme’s career highlights include becoming a Sunday Times Bestselling Author with highly acclaimed books such as ‘All Dogs Great and Small’ and ‘Perfectly Imperfect Puppy’. His influence has further extended through his engaging TEDx talk titled Why Using Dog Training Techniques to Train PEOPLE Makes Sense (2022). Beyond television and literature, Graeme regularly shares his insights through various media outlets, enhancing his reputation as one of Britain's leading behavioural experts.
Organisations consistently seek Graeme as a keynote speaker because of his unique capability to translate dog training techniques into valuable lessons for human behaviour management, leadership, communication, and interpersonal skills. His presentations not only entertain but also educate audiences on practical strategies for enhancing personal and professional relationships. Graeme Hall's exceptional ability to simplify complex behavioural concepts through relatable anecdotes makes him a particularly impactful speaker, inspiring audiences to implement positive behavioural changes
