Nat came over last night to help us train our new puppy — a Labradoodle x Cavoodle mix.
Our pup is only 9 weeks old, and we wanted to get him started with proper training as soon as possible.

Nat spent over two hours with us, explaining the reasoning behind everything she taught. In that short time, our pup learned so much — and even began to reverse some early trauma!

I’m so grateful for her service and couldn’t recommend her enough. We can’t wait to have her back!

Thank you, Nat — from Sunny, Liam, and me 🐾✨

Nat came to our house and watched our dog’s behaviour, then step by step explained what she was doing to address issues. Very clear, practical, kind and calm… our dog responded so well. Thank you for your helpful advice that we will put into practice. Highly recommend. More...

Had Nat come over today to help my 1-year-old Staffy and 4-year-old Border Collie mix get along, and honestly, she was amazing! She was really thorough and took all the time needed, she explained everything really clearly, and gave tips we could actually use straight away.

By the end of the session, my dogs were already way more relaxed around each other, and I feel way more confident about helping them become friends. Definitely recommend if your pups need a little help getting along!

Nat is an amazing dog behavioralist with a natural connection to dogs. She instantly makes them feel comfortable and seems to understand their issues and the reasons behind them. Nat clearly wants to help all dogs and their owners have their best life together. I can’t recommend Nat enough for dogs with behavior challenges or for building your connection with your furry friend and teaching them useful commands. More...

Nat was absolutely amazing! Right from the start, she instilled total confidence with her impressive skills. Our Frenchy, who is usually quite high-energy and picky about people, responded so well to her. In just one session, Nat tackled four major behavioral issues and ensured we could incorporate her methods into our daily routine. Highly recommend! More...

⭐️ BRILLIANT ⭐️ finally found the best “Nat is Dog Dialogue” ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Nat does an incredible job of training you the owner, on why …. then how to work for a positive result, which is a huge benefit for your dog. The joy of a peaceful walk and a calm dog with good manners. Nat put such a happy smile on my dog’s face while he was learning how to behave better. So much makes sense when shown with clear explanations and education for you with your dog. Nothing was rushed.

⭐️ Cannot thank you enough for helping me to understand my dog and the way how he processes and thinks. It all makes sense. ⭐️

I’ve tried 2 other useless trainers and wasted so much money that could have gone to donations for dog rescue.

Nat’s knowledge is outstanding with more than 20 years experience and it shows 😀

THANK YOU Nat - Dog Dialogue 😀

We were recommended Nat - Dog Dialogue a year ago when our dog was 6 months old. Nat established an immediate rapport with our dog as she did our whole family. Her knowledge, experience and authentic love of dogs was/is so obvious! Our dog was putty in her hand then and a year on, even more so! Nat explains the “science” behind behaviours and the strategies, old, new and emerging to manage issues - fascinating, interesting and makes sense!
So we are yet again empowered with some new strategies to help manage our dog at 18months of age! Happily recommend - and have - Nat “Dog Dialogue”. THANK YOU Nat! You are awesome!

I cannot recommend Dog Dialogue highly enough! From the moment I met Nat, I could see that her love for dogs is more than just a passion—it’s a gift. Watching her work with animals is like witnessing pure magic; she truly understands them on a level I have never seen before. We first went to puppy school for four weeks, and then Nat came for a few private sessions to help with lead training and general everyday things—front door manners, walking, road crossing, stairs and so much more. The difference in Charlie has been incredible! Thanks to Nat’s incredible training techniques, he can now sit, stay, fetch,and follow commands with ease. But what truly sets Nat apart is not just her knowledge of dog behaviour but the way she applies it with so much love and understanding. She doesn’t just train dogs—she connects with them, shaping their behaviour through classical and operant conditioning in an almost effortless way. If there is one thing I’d recommend to anyone—even before you get a puppy—it’s to book in with Nat at Dog Dialogue. It will make your experience of having a puppy happy and enjoyable from the start! I am beyond grateful for everything she has done for us. Charlie is happier, more confident, and thriving because of her guidance. She is more than just an animal behaviour specialist—she is a true dog whisperer, and we feel so lucky to have found her. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, Nat, for everything you have done for Charlie and me. You are truly amazing!🐾love Nicci and Charlie🐾 More...

I was recommended Nat by a friend after my dachshund displayed some aggressive behaviour amd I was not disappointed. ive only had one session but I didn't recognise my dog by the end of. while I still have a long road to go in training I left feeling optimistic and confident.

Absolutely fantastic experience with Dog Dialogue! Nat is incredibly knowledgeable, patient and truly in tune with dogs. Her gentle, positive reinforcement methods have made such a difference in Keith's, and my understanding of each other. Nat takes the time to understand each dog's personality and tailors her approach accordingly. I've seen a huge improvement in my puppy's responsiveness and overall temperament, as well as his interaction with my two young children. If you're looking for a trainer who is kind, intuitive and genuinely cares about strengthening the bond between you and your dog, I couldn’t recommend Nat more! More...

I don’t usually write reviews unless I truly mean them, but I had to share my experience with Nat. I found out about her through word of mouth and wasn’t sure what to expect—there are so many self-proclaimed trainers out there, and it’s hard to know who to trust. From our very first session, I was blown away. I thought we might learn one or two things in a couple of hours, but Nat covered so much more. She explained everything clearly and logically, helping us understand how dogs think and behave. Because her training methods were so simple and effective, we were able to practice them easily, and our dog started following instructions right away. It was worth every cent, and I’m so grateful we found her. I highly recommend Nat to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and trustworthy trainer! More...

I highly recommend Nat from Dog dialogue. I have a high energy working dog breed that I got as a rescue at 7mths, she had lived outside. After a year and many hours training she was great to take out and in many other ways however was still not able to be in the house off lead without becoming destructive and unable to settle. By the time Nat left on our 1st appointment she followed me to the door, no lead and stayed inside for the rest of the day, relaxed like we have never seen her before. Nat just gets dogs and has a wealth of knowledge and experience. More...

We had an amazing experience with Nat during our personal dog training session. Her years of experience truly shine through in how she approaches training, and she made us realize just how much we still had to learn about guiding our pup! Nat is fantastic with dogs—gentle and caring while still being able to establish her presence so the dog listens. It’s clear she understands how to balance firmness and kindness, which really puts both the dog and the owner at ease. One of the best decisions we made was getting Nat’s help with crate training. Within just two days, our pup has already made incredible progress. Her guidance was clear, practical, and so effective. If you’re considering personal dog training, I can’t recommend Nat enough. She made such a difference for us and our pup! More...

Nat is an incredibly gifted dog advocate & trainer. I discovered after our training sessions with Nat for our two highly spirited terriers that it was actually me who needed the most training. I needed to learn how to correctly communicate my directives to my dogs in a language that they understand. Nat helped me learn that language, both verbal and physical so that my dogs clearly understand what I'm wanting them to do. Dedication to the goal is the key to success! Thanks so much Nat, you are amazing 🤩 More...

Meeting Nat and getting her amazing support with our tiny Maltese pup was the absolute best thing that could happen to us and our tiny angel.
Nat does for work what she loves the most in her life- helping dogs having better lives - and doggies know it. Her connection with dogs is magical, our little Charlie connected with her within a second and after just one session with Nat he started transforming from an anxious and scared puppy into a curious and happy one.
I highly recommend Nat for her work and love for dogs and am forever grateful for all she has done for my little angel.

We love natty! Our fur baby Rumi who is a unique little pup warmed to Nat straight away. We learnt so much about dogs and how they respond to the world around them. The most important lesson: it’s never the dogs fault, it’s the humans that need the training. Patience, love, repetition, re-directional techniques and trusting in the process! Be okay with failing a few times. Dogs learn intrinsic behaviours, don’t get caught up trying to make them understand. We put in lots of love and now thanks to Nats direction we are confident. We had 3 sessions and they were absolutely worth it. Thanks Natty.x More...

Q&As

Being able to assist people in understanding their dogs and why they behave in certain ways, allows me to help people to develop one of the most beautiful friendships they will ever experience. I am so grateful to be able to do what I love and am most passionate about in life every single day.

Animals and the environment have always been my greatest passion in life. I have spent a lot of time over seas working on conservational projects that protect the Orangutan and Mountain Gorilla and their habitats and I continue to do so whenever possible. I have always had a unique connection with dogs and understood how they work. It was when I was in Kisoro Uganda being followed by several dogs in a place where people have no respect for dogs and absolutely no understanding of their beautiful ability to be truly selfless, loyal and the best friend a person can have, that I realised what I wanted to do in life. I was in a place surrounded by poverty where children have nothing and are scared of dogs. I made a decision to try an educate people about these beautiful animals and the friendship and love they offer. I began teaching people in Africa the most basic concepts of k9 and human friendship, watching people go from fearing dogs to respecting and loving them and developing a friendship is one of the most rewarding experiences of my life! So I decided that is what I wanted to do with my life!

EXPERIENCE !!!!!!!!!!!
I have thousands and thousands of hours of experience working with and being amongst dogs and puppies in every situation and environment possible. This is what I do and have done this full time 7 days a week for over 15 years.

I have several qualifications including, Diploma in Canine Aggression Cert IV in Canine Psychology and Behaviour, Cert in Animal Behaviour and currently studying an advance diploma in Canine Behavioural Management. I will continue to study to keep up to date with the latest science based techniques in Canine Behavioural Management.
If you're looking for an ACTUAL PROFESSIONAL to assist you with rescue dogs or any form of behavioural reactivity, I would advise you make sure they have a minimum of ten years full time experience and a minimum of 5 years full time experience for basic behaviour and puppy training. Ask what methods they use and simply hang up if they use any form of dominance or force based training. If you have a trainer that treats your dog with anything other than love understanding and respect ask them to leave immediately and review them and your experience. I hate the word industry but this industry is unregulated and any one with little or NO experience or qualifications can start a web site and claim to be a trainer or behavioural consultant. I am appalled at some of the stories my clients have told me of previous experience with someone claiming to be a trainer or behaviourist that has come to their home and frightened or even hurt their dog. DO NOT STAND FOR IT!!!!
I will love your angel as if they're my own and do everything that I am capable of to help you to modify and manage any behaviour that you do not understand or need assistance with. Dogs are simply my purpose in life and I am a guardian to every single one of them and you will know this of me as soon as we meet.
