Do you have a Tenterfield 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.
Tenterfield Terriers are energetic, confident Australian terriers with a strong ratting heritage. They're quick, alert, and full of terrier spirit — small dogs with a big sense of self-importance and fearless attitude.
Tenterfield Terrier owners know their little dog thinks they're the boss — and they might be right. If yours barks at everything, chases every lizard, and thinks the big dogs at the park need to be told who's in charge, that's pure Tenterfield spirit. Their intelligence and energy make them surprisingly good training candidates when you find what motivates them.
Whether your Tenterfield 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.

"We were close to the end of our tether when we contacted Natalie to see if she could assist with our young, antisocial JR terrier. Natalie has helped us to better understand the behaviours and motivations of our pups, and how to navigate and manage situations that cause angst for both pups and humans alike. Natalie has worked with us on manageable training tasks to improve behaviours in a range of real-life situations. Our relationships with our pups, and quality of life for all of us, are now much improved. I highly recommend Natalie's approach and philosophy - it's made a positive difference for us."

"Natalie is an absolute legend! We welcomed two Aussie Shepherd boys from the same litter and had heard plenty about the challenges of raising two brothers. We couldn’t have done it better without her guidance. We truly appreciate her ongoing support and the positive changes we’ve seen."

"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."
