Pharaoh Hound Training

Do you have a Pharaoh Hound 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.

Pharaoh Hounds are elegant, ancient sighthounds known for their unique ability to blush. They're gentle, affectionate, and playful — but their strong prey drive and sensitive nature require understanding and patience.

Common Pharaoh Hound traits and training needs

  • Extreme prey drive — will chase anything that runs, with very little regard for recall
  • Sensitive and can be anxious in new environments or around loud noises
  • Prone to alert barking at movement and sounds
  • Independent nature — sighthound stubbornness means they train on their terms
  • Can be reserved with strangers while being affectionate with family
  • Needs careful management around small animals and cats

Pharaoh Hound owners appreciate their dog's graceful, gentle nature — and their famous blush. If yours has zero recall when a rabbit appears, barks at every movement outside, or takes weeks to warm up to new people, that's the ancient sighthound coming through. Their sensitive, affectionate nature makes them respond beautifully to patient, positive training.

Pharaoh Hound (and others) Success Stories

"Natalie was amazing! We took on an ex show dog who was the sibling of our first dog, he came with some complex social behaviours and we have been given some positive training tips to help keep him calm and teach him to trust we will keep him safe. Now I feel like his beautiful personality can shine out of the house, and we have the right tools to support him, keeping me calm in the process! Thanks so much Natalie:)"

"I began fostering a rescue dog in July 2022 and knew I would need some help with 'Barney'. I found Natalie online and have booked twice now to get help and training with Barney who was initially severely car reactive and pulled excessively on his lead on walks. I love Natalie's approach, methods and her natural ability and skill set which helps owners and their dogs live a happy and calm life. Can't recommend Natalie highly enough!"

Airedale Terrier • Macedon

"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!"
