With over 900 dogs trained across the Macedon Ranges, Natalie understands the unique personality and needs that come with this wonderful breed.
American Staffordshire Terriers are confident, loyal dogs with a strong build and a surprisingly gentle disposition with their family. They're courageous and intelligent, with a deep desire to please their people — but their strength demands responsible handling.
AmStaff owners know they have a devoted, powerful dog who would do anything for them. If your AmStaff is the sweetest dog at home but transforms into a lunging, barking handful on walks, or plays so roughly that visitors get nervous, you're experiencing common AmStaff traits. Their loyalty and desire to please makes them very responsive to training — they just need someone who understands their strength and channels it well.
Whether your American Staffordshire Terrier is a new puppy or an older dog with some habits to work on, we've got options to suit.

Great value for money and really lovely lady. Willow loves it when Natalie walks in the door and we always leave with small steps to work on between sessions to improve her behaviour in increments (including jumping, barking and bailing up the cat). The improvements to Willows behaviour have been significant. Natalie comes to you for one on one training, which achieves much more in short space than puppy training did for us. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her services."

"Natalie is a brilliant pup & human educator! Her solutions are focused on sustainable, kind & fun techniques for the whole family. Our pup Leica was enamoured from day one & to be honest we were a little star struck too. Cannot recommend Natalie highly enough. 5 stars just aren’t enough."
