Do you have a Koolie X 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.
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.
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 adopted a rescue dog and whilst she is very cute we knew from the onset that she would need work which is why we went to Natalie. Through the session we were able to work on some strategies to help improve behaviour and remove the anxiety out of interacting with other people/animals whilst out and about. It's been approximately a month now since our session and we can see a noticeable difference in behaviour and we continue to see improvements on a daily basis. My biggest learning was to be realistic about the experience. Things will get better in very slow, little increments. Be diligent and temper your expectations. I keep reminding myself of this and it has really changed the relationship I have with our dog. I'm excited to see her develop even further into the dog I know she can be - all thanks to Natalie."

"From the beginning, Nat showed she was highly professional and dedicated to helping our family. Her drills, training ideas and positive approach to dog training had an immediate effect on our puppy and our family. We highly recommend Nat to help you with your dog training needs."

"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!"
