Do you have a Kelpie x Whippet 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.
Kelpie × Whippet crosses produce lean, athletic dogs with incredible speed and the Kelpie's intense drive. They're often fast, smart, and sensitive — combining the sighthound's prey drive with the Kelpie's herding instinct.
Kelpie × Whippet owners have one of the fastest, most driven dogs at the park. If yours runs like the wind, chases every moving thing, and has a sensitive side that surprises you — that's both breeds in one package. Their intelligence and sensitivity make them very responsive to calm, patient training. They just need plenty of exercise to take the edge off first.
Whether your Kelpie x Whippet 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 very patient and kind with our 5 month old pup. She has a wealth of knowledge and calming nature. I look forward to putting these training methods into place."
— Michelle Wearne
"Natalie has helped us with our rescue puppy Daisy, who was extremely anxious and scared of people and dogs, and acting out in other ways. We called Natalie when we were at the end of our tethers, after two months with Daisy, and after the first session we felt both empowered and reassured. Natalie's extensive notes after our session were also very helpful, to refer to as we were working through the recommendations. During her second visit, a month later, Natalie addressed specific issues that we are still having, and she also noted significant improvements in Daisy's confidence. It is wonderful to be supported by someone with such extensive knowledge and love for dogs. I highly recommend her services."

"Natalie is a brilliant pup & human educator! Her solutions are focused on sustainable, kind & fun techniques for the whole family. Our pup Leica was enamoured from day one & to be honest we were a little star struck too. Cannot recommend Natalie highly enough. 5 stars just aren’t enough."
— Kirsty Doyle
