Pomeranian Training

Do you have a Pomeranian 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.

Pomeranians are tiny dogs with enormous personalities and luxurious coats. They're bold, curious, and surprisingly vocal — descended from large sled dogs, which perhaps explains why they seem to think they're much bigger than they are.

Common Pomeranian traits and training needs

  • Excessive barking is one of the most common issues — they alert to everything
  • Can develop resource guarding over toys, food, and their favourite person
  • Prone to small-dog reactivity towards larger dogs and strangers
  • Can be difficult to toilet train due to their small bladder and preference for warmth
  • May become nippy or snappy when handled, especially by children
  • Separation anxiety is common — they want to be with their person at all times

Pomeranian owners know their fluffy little dog has the confidence of a Great Dane. If your Pom barks at everything, guards your lap from other pets, or has turned toilet training into a battle of wills on cold mornings, you're in classic Pom territory. Their intelligence and bold nature actually make them good training candidates — they just need you to set the same expectations you would for a bigger dog.

"Natalie was fabulous with my dogs! I have a very anxious Frenchie who I wasn't even sure could be trained. Nat took her time slowly teaching her (and me) steps to achieve our goals. The understanding/care she shows both animals and humans is fabulous! Thanks Nat 🙂🐶"

"I wish there were more than 5 stars to give! Natalie and Crazy, Kind Calm was recommended to us from a work mate and we couldn’t be happier. We recently rescued a Jack Russell Terrier who is nearly 1.5 years old, and after much research on trainers in the region, we reached out to Natalie. Rightly so, she is a very sought after trainer and we waited patiently for our session with her. She even recommended other trainers who we might want to engage, as it would be 6 weeks before we could see her. We decided to hold out and do our best until our session with the her. From the minute Natalie entered the home, she had our little mate completely engaged. Honestly, it was like watching magic. We went for the personal training session first, and her credentials and experience did not disappoint. We had a 2 hour session, and not 1 second was wasted. The whole experience was the most engaging, informative and educational I have ever had with a trainer, especially dealing with rescue dogs and their big feelings. We can’t wait for our follow up sessions. The level of care, the detailed and tailored training plans which Natalie sent after the session, the trust our precious little mate Billy had in her from the first second, and her genuine warmth, and love and respect for all dogs- made it a very comforting and wondrous experience. Again- if there were more stars to give- I would give them. A truly professional, experienced, trustworthy and knowledgeable trainer - worth the wait 💜"
