With over 900 dogs trained across the Macedon Ranges, Natalie understands the unique personality and needs that come with this wonderful breed.
Standard Schnauzers are spirited, intelligent dogs with a strong work ethic and protective nature. They're the original Schnauzer — versatile, alert, and full of personality, with a terrier-like independence that keeps things interesting.
Standard Schnauzer owners have a dog with big opinions and the intelligence to back them up. If yours alerts you to every delivery driver, challenges other dogs on walks, or has found creative ways around every boundary you've set — that's the Schnauzer brain at work. Their versatility and intelligence make them capable of impressive training achievements when properly motivated.
Whether your Standard Schnauzer is a new puppy or an older dog with some habits to work on, we've got options to suit.

"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."

"We just had a family/dog training session with our dog Ollie. Not only is Nat most excellent in imparting heaps of very useful and ace knowledge about our dog, I am most stocked about how she managed to teach (or shall I say train) our kids to train the dog :) - Now that we all got taught how to best train our doggo, we can tackle it together and it's not just a "parent's" job. Thanks heaps Nat x"
