With over 900 dogs trained across the Macedon Ranges, Natalie understands the unique personality and needs that come with this wonderful breed.
Bernedoodles (Bernese Mountain Dog × Poodle) combine the Bernese's gentle nature with the Poodle's intelligence. They're affectionate, playful, and often larger than expected — with a stubborn streak that comes from both parent breeds.
Bernedoodle owners often discover that 'best of both breeds' includes the stubborn bits too. If your Bernedoodle sits down mid-walk and refuses to move, takes an age to warm up to new people, or seems clingy when you try to leave — that's the Bernese sensitivity meeting Poodle smarts. Their affectionate nature and desire to please makes them lovely training partners once you find their motivation.
Whether your Bernedoodle is a new puppy or an older dog with some habits to work on, we've got options to suit.

"Cannot recommend enough! Natalie has helped us work with not one, but 2 family dogs. Our first was a rescue with sever behavioral problems and now we are currently working on our very big and cheeky deerhound puppy. Her expertise in all areas of dog behavior is amazing and her techniques are positive, make sense and she always takes the time to explain why and how a particular technique will help. We are so happy to have Natalie teaching us what a true dog/human partnership is."
