Do you have a Bordoodle that needs some training help? Natalie from Crazy Kind Calm dog training can help!
With over 900 dogs trained across the Macedon Ranges, Natalie understands the unique personality and needs that come with this wonderful breed.
Bordoodles (Border Collie × Poodle) are exceptionally intelligent dogs who inherit brains from both parent breeds. They're energetic, trainable, and often more intense than their fluffy appearance suggests — think Border Collie drive in a Poodle coat.
Bordoodle owners quickly discover they have one of the cleverest dogs in the park. That intelligence is a gift, but it also means your Bordoodle needs their brain exercised as much as their body. If yours is inventing games, herding the household, or developing weird habits out of boredom, that's the Border Collie brain working overtime. With the right outlets and training, Bordoodles are incredibly rewarding companions.
Whether your Bordoodle is a new puppy or an older dog with some habits to work on, we've got options to suit.
Personalised sessions in your home, where the challenges actually happen. We work together on your specific goals — whether it's pulling on lead, barking, poor recall, jumping up, or something else entirely.

"I began fostering a rescue dog in July 2022 and knew I would need some help with 'Barney'. I found Natalie online and have booked twice now to get help and training with Barney who was initially severely car reactive and pulled excessively on his lead on walks. I love Natalie's approach, methods and her natural ability and skill set which helps owners and their dogs live a happy and calm life. Can't recommend Natalie highly enough!"

"We have been using Crazy Kind Calm training for just under two months now and the difference in our 6yo Airedale Teddy has been absolutely amazing. We were having all sorts of problems with Teddy being overly excitable with people and aggressive towards other dogs when out for a walk. Natalie has taught us a whole range of techniques to help manage Teddy's behaviours and reduce her stress levels. Teddy is so much calmer and happier these days and we are continuing to work on her excitement levels. We highly recommend Crazy Kind Calm!"

"Natalie was amazing! We took on an ex show dog who was the sibling of our first dog, he came with some complex social behaviours and we have been given some positive training tips to help keep him calm and teach him to trust we will keep him safe. Now I feel like his beautiful personality can shine out of the house, and we have the right tools to support him, keeping me calm in the process! Thanks so much Natalie:)"
