Do you have a Labrador x Poodle (Std) 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.
Standard Labradoodles (Labrador × Standard Poodle) are larger, more athletic dogs than many people expect. They combine the Labrador's friendly enthusiasm with the Standard Poodle's intelligence and sensitivity — producing a big, clever, energetic companion.
Standard Labradoodle owners often discover they have a bigger, more energetic dog than they bargained for. If yours bounces off the walls before walks, pulls you towards every dog at the park, or can't settle in cafes, that's standard for a Standard Labradoodle. Their intelligence and eagerness to please make them responsive learners — they just need their energy addressed first.
Whether your Labrador x Poodle (Std) 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.

"I got in touch with Natalie to ask for advice about an issue with my dog and she was so helpful, considerate and generous with her time. I’m very grateful to her and really appreciate her and her approach."

"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."

"We have had a great experience with CKC. We have learnt a lot and have been able to apply this training easily to our gregarious pup...now adolescent pup. The training makes sense and logic of your dog's behaviour. Would definitely recommend to all dog owners, no matter how old."
