With over 900 dogs trained across the Macedon Ranges, Natalie understands the unique personality and needs that come with this wonderful breed.
Chihuahuas are tiny dogs with enormous attitudes. They're fiercely loyal to their chosen person, full of sass, and surprisingly brave — but their small size and big personality can create behavioural patterns that are easily reinforced without realising.
Chihuahua owners know their tiny dog runs the show. If your Chihuahua barks at every dog in sight, guards you like a dragon guards treasure, or refuses to walk in the rain, these are incredibly common patterns. Their small size means problem behaviours often get accidentally rewarded — picking them up when they bark, letting them skip walks. With consistent training, even the sassiest Chihuahua can learn to navigate the world with more confidence.
Whether your Chihuahua is a new puppy or an older dog with some habits to work on, we've got options to suit.

"Nat knows her stuff and explains it in clear and really easily adoptable instructions. She has helped immensely with our pup who has a bit of anxiety around socialisation so that now we can walk calmly and it's great to have her at the end of emails to answer anything that comes up. Highly recommend Nat's approach, it's made a world of difference!"

"We just had a family/dog training session with our dog Ollie. Not only is Nat most excellent in imparting heaps of very useful and ace knowledge about our dog, I am most stocked about how she managed to teach (or shall I say train) our kids to train the dog :) - Now that we all got taught how to best train our doggo, we can tackle it together and it's not just a "parent's" job. Thanks heaps Nat x"
