Do you have a Golden Retriever x Labrador 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.
Golden Retriever × Labrador crosses combine two of the world's most popular retrievers. The result is typically a friendly, enthusiastic, food-loving dog with a big heart and even bigger energy levels — the best of both retrieving worlds.
Golden × Lab owners have double the retriever enthusiasm to manage. If your dog greets every person as their new best friend, steals food from any surface, and drags you towards the nearest body of water — that's pure retriever on both sides. Their eagerness to please and food motivation make them wonderfully trainable, you just need to channel all that enthusiasm in the right direction.
Whether your Golden Retriever x Labrador 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.

"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"

"Crazy Kind Calm Dog Training have helped us and our puppy progress in leaps and bounds. He has become more responsive and confident. The program is designed to meet the individual needs of our family and the environment our puppy lives in. The notes provided afterwards, enables us to practice our learnings between sessions. Would recommend Nat to anyone looking to bring a dog into the family."
