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.

We couldn’t have done it better without her guidance. We truly appreciate her ongoing support and the positive changes we’ve seen."

"From the beginning, Nat showed she was highly professional and dedicated to helping our family. Her drills, training ideas and positive approach to dog training had an immediate effect on our puppy and our family. We highly recommend Nat to help you with your dog training needs."

"Natalie has been fantastic with our 2 over exuberant anxious dogs and us their humans, we have just had a third training session and it turns out you can teach an old dog new tricks, our dogs 2.5 and 5.5 yrs old are calmer, easier to walk and not barking crazy at everyone that wanders past our fence, it still is a work in progress but Natalie has been an amazing resource and her manner and dealings with us and doggies is wise and professional"
