With over 900 dogs trained across the Macedon Ranges, Natalie understands the unique personality and needs that come with this wonderful breed.
Koolie crosses inherit the Australian Koolie's remarkable herding ability and energy, blended with another breed. The Koolie's drive and intelligence tend to come through strongly — producing dogs that need purpose and activity.
Koolie cross owners have a dog with genuine herding drive that needs an outlet. If yours is full of energy, tries to herd everything that moves, or has learned tricks you didn't teach them — that's the Koolie intelligence at work. Their eagerness to please and natural working ability make them brilliant training candidates when given enough stimulation.
Whether your Koolie X is a new puppy or an older dog with some habits to work on, we've got options to suit.

"We were close to the end of our tether when we contacted Natalie to see if she could assist with our young, antisocial JR terrier. Natalie has helped us to better understand the behaviours and motivations of our pups, and how to navigate and manage situations that cause angst for both pups and humans alike. Natalie has worked with us on manageable training tasks to improve behaviours in a range of real-life situations. Our relationships with our pups, and quality of life for all of us, are now much improved. I highly recommend Natalie's approach and philosophy - it's made a positive difference for us."

"We have been using Crazy Kind Calm training for just under two months now and the difference in our 6yo Airedale Teddy has been absolutely amazing. We were having all sorts of problems with Teddy being overly excitable with people and aggressive towards other dogs when out for a walk. Natalie has taught us a whole range of techniques to help manage Teddy's behaviours and reduce her stress levels. Teddy is so much calmer and happier these days and we are continuing to work on her excitement levels. We highly recommend Crazy Kind Calm!"
