Labrador x Poodle (Med) Training

Do you have a Labrador x Poodle (Med) 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.

Medium Labradoodles (Labrador × Medium Poodle) are mid-sized dogs that combine the Labrador's friendly nature with the Poodle's intelligence. They're often chosen for their manageable size, but they still pack plenty of energy and personality.

Common Labrador x Poodle (Med) traits and training needs

  • More energetic than their medium size suggests — Poodle intelligence needs outlets
  • Can be mouthy and jumpy, especially during greetings and play
  • Intelligent enough to learn quickly, but also to learn how to push boundaries
  • Pulls on lead and becomes frustrated when restrained from greeting other dogs
  • May develop anxious behaviours when left alone or under-stimulated
  • Social dogs who can become over-aroused around other dogs

Medium Labradoodle owners often find they have more dog than their mid-size frame suggests. If yours can't settle at the cafe, gets over-excited at every dog they see, or has learned to open cupboards — that's the Lab-Poodle brain at work. Their friendly, willing nature makes training a pleasure. They just need you to stay one step ahead of their clever problem-solving mind.

"Fantastic Trainer, and very knowledgeable. highly recommended."

"Natalie has been fantastic with our 2 over exuberant anxious dogs and us their humans, we have just had a third training session and it turns out you can teach an old dog new tricks, our dogs 2.5 and 5.5 yrs old are calmer, easier to walk and not barking crazy at everyone that wanders past our fence, it still is a work in progress but Natalie has been an amazing resource and her manner and dealings with us and doggies is wise and professional"
