Do you have a French Bulldog 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.
French Bulldogs are charming, compact companions who were bred purely to be loved. They're playful, adaptable, and full of character — but their stubbornness and some breed-specific quirks mean they're not always the low-maintenance dogs people expect.
French Bulldog owners are devoted to those bat ears and that stubborn little personality. If your Frenchie has decided that training is optional, that the couch is their throne, and that sharing toys is beneath them — that's classic Frenchie behaviour. They're smart enough to learn anything; they just need a reason to cooperate. Despite their reputation as couch potatoes, many Frenchies have more energy and opinion than expected.
Whether your French Bulldog 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.

"Natalie was fabulous with my dogs! I have a very anxious Frenchie who I wasn't even sure could be trained. Nat took her time slowly teaching her (and me) steps to achieve our goals. The understanding/care she shows both animals and humans is fabulous! Thanks Nat 🙂🐶"

"I wish there were more than 5 stars to give! Natalie and Crazy, Kind Calm was recommended to us from a work mate and we couldn’t be happier. We recently rescued a Jack Russell Terrier who is nearly 1.5 years old, and after much research on trainers in the region, we reached out to Natalie. Rightly so, she is a very sought after trainer and we waited patiently for our session with her. She even recommended other trainers who we might want to engage, as it would be 6 weeks before we could see her. We decided to hold out and do our best until our session with the her. From the minute Natalie entered the home, she had our little mate completely engaged. Honestly, it was like watching magic. We went for the personal training session first, and her credentials and experience did not disappoint. We had a 2 hour session, and not 1 second was wasted. The whole experience was the most engaging, informative and educational I have ever had with a trainer, especially dealing with rescue dogs and their big feelings. We can’t wait for our follow up sessions. The level of care, the detailed and tailored training plans which Natalie sent after the session, the trust our precious little mate Billy had in her from the first second, and her genuine warmth, and love and respect for all dogs- made it a very comforting and wondrous experience. Again- if there were more stars to give- I would give them. A truly professional, experienced, trustworthy and knowledgeable trainer - worth the wait 💜"
