He is so much more engaged with me on the walks and regularly checking in. Most importantly we both have really enjoyed our walks this week.
Even if you don’t have other animals at home, you’ll find that almost all walks are filled with them.
Chasing or hunting for other animals can put your dog at risk of getting lost or hurt. Not to mention the risk to you of being dragged over if your dog spots a squirrel before you.
Ignoring all calls to come back is common in dogs while chasing or hunting.
What you are living with is a dog with a high prey drive and you are not alone. I promise.
In JUST 5 weeks, you will clearly see improvements in your best friend's behaviour, using the easy-to-understand and simple-to-implement process I developed as part of my MSc in Animal Behaviour Studies.
The best part of all is this challenge is going to take place in our private group on Facebook, where you'll also build bonds with other owners just like you!
The brilliant news is that you can have all of that AND it’s completely free AND you don’t have to travel to get it.
This five-day online high prey drive challenge will help you to connect with your dog more strongly, to be safer on walks AND feel less stress and guilt about your dog.
Hi – I’m Tracey
High prey drive dogs are my passion but I didn’t start like that. I started out looking for dogs without a prey drive. I didn’t know back then how important prey drive is. Now I do and now I love to work with people to help them understand their dogs and grow their relationship.
I’ve been working as a dog trainer for many years, teaching training, workshops and on a 1-2-1 basis. I’ve volunteered in both large and small rescue organisations - and for the amazing Paws for Progress.
I have two degrees – a BSc (hons) in Canine Behaviour and Training and an MSc – a masters degree - in Applied Animal Behaviour and Training. I am also a Tellington TTouch practitioner. I'm the author of the book Canine Aggression: Rehabilitating an aggressive dog with kindness and compassion. My research into prey drive has been published in the peer reviewed journal Applied Animal Behaviour Science
Check out just a few of the comments from people who have already completed the High Prey Drive Challenge.
“This week has been wonderful. During the walk pheasants flew out very close by on a number of occasions and she just calmly watched then looked for a treat.”
“It’s been a breath of fresh air as I was feeling so fed up and stuck with a beautiful dog but worried about walking him. You have given some directions that are making differences.”
“Here is my wayward sprocker this morning, coming back to check in from the undergrowth. Normally she stays in there forever, or works her way down the undergrowth parallel to me. Today she was back and forth on her own accord even though it is teeming with rabbit holes. So pleased.”
If you join the challenge, it will help you to:
Be more confident that your dog will not get lost or hurt taking off after prey on your walks.
Get your dog’s attention when it’s most important for his safety.
Be safer on walks.
Give your dog the happy life he deserves.
Spend time relaxing on walks instead of wating for him to take off.
Feel less alone in your struggle to teach your best friend how to be more relaxed.
Inside the challenge you will get:
Emails twice a week with each lesson, video recordings of live discussions about each lesson AND emails to support you with other aspects of prey drive.
Video recordings of live discussions about each lesson.
I'll email with support about other aspects of prey drive - whatever your prey drive problem I've got you covered.
The next time I run the challenge live, you'll get an invitation to join in. That way, you can revisit all your learning AND get a chance to chat directly with me.
