Charlie the Cavoodle from Kiama is a reality show tv star after appearing recently on Dogs Behaving Badly on Channel 10.

Charlie got help with his escaping problem from the Dog father himself, Graeme Hall who is the star of the very popular UK series of the same name.

He has arrived in Australia to produce an Aussie version of the series with Channel 10 having helped over 5000 people and their dogs in the UK.

Graeme says his mission is to get families to understand their problem pooches and work with the families to get the best outcome for both them and their best friends.

The big task for Graeme on the episode was teaching Charlie not to escape when the gate was open.

Charlie the Kiama Cavoodle’s problem was he is a renowned escape artist, repeatedly getting loose and even once got trapped down a cliff in June 2018 in the Sapphire Coast region (between Bermagui in the north and Eden in the south of NSW’s south coast) and had to be rescued down a cliff and nearly died. Charlie was chasing a kangaroo and fell 40 meters and broke his back, needing life-saving surgery which was successful. This inspired Sheree to start and run the Flying Dog Boutique which is found in all Collective Beat sites.

Owner Sheree Bradley is well known in Kiama as the owner/operator of the Collective Beat in Kiama, Gerringong, and Huskisson.
