Fans were left baffled — and more than a little annoyed — this week when Dogs Behaving (Very) Badly vanished from schedules without warning.
Instead of tuning in to watch Britain’s most chaotic canines being whipped into shape, viewers were met with a repeat of The Yorkshire Vet — sparking immediate confusion and a flood of questions online.
Now, the show’s familiar face Graeme Hall has finally spoken out.
‘We’ve Pressed Pause’ — Graeme Addresses the Sudden Disappearance
After days of fan speculation, Graeme took to Facebook on Wednesday evening to explain what’s really going on.
Usually keeping his distance from social media — he’s previously admitted he avoids it to escape online trolls — the dog trainer said this situation felt too important to ignore.
Filming a casual video while walking through London, Graeme reassured viewers that the show hasn’t been axed.
“You might have noticed there’s been a bit of a gap in the current series,” he explained.
“What we’ve decided to do is give it a pause — and then there’ll be more episodes coming back in the summer.”
More Episodes Are Coming — And There’s Plenty Still to See
Only seven episodes of the current series have aired so far, leaving fans worried the rest of Series 8 might never see the light of day.
But Graeme confirmed there’s much more still to come, teasing episodes filmed across England, Wales — and even Northern Ireland, a first for the show.
“All sorts of different dogs, all sorts of different problems,” he said. “Loads!”
And that wasn’t all.
Graeme also dropped a tantalising hint that another Australia series could be on the horizon — sending fans into overdrive.
Fans React: Relief, Excitement… and a Little Protest
The response was immediate — and emotional.
-
“Wondered where you were!” one viewer commented.
-
“I’ve been hunting for the programmes!” said another.
-
“So glad we’ll be seeing more of you,” wrote a relieved fan.
Others weren’t thrilled about the break at all.
“Noooo — we don’t want a pause!” one joked. “Enjoy London though!”
