★★★★★ 5.0 from 72 reviews (Oct 2026)Do you have a Miniature Fox Terrier 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.
Miniature Fox Terriers are energetic, alert little dogs with classic terrier confidence. They're quick, clever, and surprisingly athletic — packing the determination of a much larger dog into a tiny, fearless package.
Mini Foxie owners know their tiny dog is completely unaware of their size. If yours challenges the neighbour's Rottweiler through the fence, alerts you to every passing leaf, or has turned the backyard into a lizard-hunting ground, that's pure terrier. Their intelligence and energy make them surprisingly responsive to training — they just need someone who takes their training as seriously as they take their job.
Whether your Miniature Fox Terrier 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.

"This is the second dog we have trained through Nat. Her calmness and her attention to detail is what we love. She is extremely patient with us which can be a huge help when we feel like we are failing. Our dogs are happier and there was no punishing or upsetting with any of our dogs so they still love us and there is no fear just respect and love. We appreciate Nat and her commitment beyond words and we have and will continue to recommend her to any and all who listen."

"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."
