I cannot believe, without exaggeration, how quickly my dog stopped hunting with Simone Mueller’s predation substitute protocol. So effective, so simple and I’m still blown away that pup comes back to me all happy. There is a lot of useful information in this webinar, including games and techniques and check out the question and answer period where she discusses additional resources like fur decoys, scent and I saw a harness pressure video in the resources section. A must-see and I look forward to more webinars and courses with Simone!

I was lucky enough to attend one of Simone's workshops at Lothlorien and have been putting it to good use not only with clients' dogs but also with my own rescue dog. We moved to a rural area with sheep and lambs adjacent on one side and the enchanted forest on the other 3. I am working through the protocol with him now and we are definitely on the right track. This is a great course and Simone's methods do work.

Really lovely methods to meet dogs’ intrinsic needs rather than annoyingly interrupting or trying to train incompatible and difficult (for the dogs) behaviors. I’ve already started using these tools with my own dog and with clients and can’t wait to develop these skills more!

As a dog owner I found this webinar really helpful & would highly recommend to anyone who has a critter mad dog! Or trainers for their clients. Some things I had instinctively been doing but to see & hear how to use them properly with suitable cues I found amazing, it was like 'oh yeah' lightbulb moments! It's only been a week or so since I watched it and I have felt much more confident in what I'm doing & there has already been a definite difference in my dog's behaviour when we come across squirrels. Brilliant, informative, well presented webinar which I'm so glad I found.

Tired of your dog chasing squirrels?

Don’t spoil the fun — go "hunting" together! Do you wish your dog would listen to you on walks, rather than running after cats, sheep, wildlife, bicycles, skateboards, or other prey?

Concerned that your dog’s prey drive is coming between the two of you?

Conventional training protocols stifle your dog’s natural predatory behaviors through punishment or constantly forcing them to return. These restrictive protocols work against your dog’s nature and against what they want (and one could even say need) most: to go for a hunt.

  • Suitable for professional dog trainers as well as families with dogs.

  • What is predation and why is so hard to stop?

  • Build a reliable recall for dogs who love to chase.

  • Help your dog control their urge to chase in a healthy way!

  • Build a strong emergency cue to immediately interrupt predatory chasing!

  • On-demand video recording of a live webinar.

  • Earn 2 CCPDT CEUS, IAABC CEUs pending for dog trainer recertification. We are an Approved Education Provider for the CCPDT.

  • For more complete training, check out the full Predation Substitute Training Case studies course! It's a practical online course with live demos that includes a viewing of this webinar.

  • Included with Diamond Membership (see below).

Step-by-step instructions get real-life results!

Discover new ways to express predatory energy in a safe, controlled environment.

  • Happy Walks!

    Prevention: Structure your walks to set your dog up for success.

    Predation Substitute Tools: Help your dog control their urge to chase in a healthy way.More

  • 2 Hour On-Demand Webinar

    Predation Substitute Games: Discover new ways to express predatory energy in a safe, controlled environment

    Safety net: Build a strong “emergency cue” to immediately interrupt predatory chasing.

  • Bonus Material

    With your registration, you get a streaming video recording of a previously live webinar, including lots of questions from the eager audience and a PDF of the slide notes to assist your learning.

To say that I learned so much for this course is the understatement of the year (and it's almost the end of December). Truly, Simone is incredible and I can't wait to get started with a few of my client's dogs with their predatory behaviours! I knew that we couldn't train predation out of our dogs but learning how we can still help them fulfill their basic, instinctual need in a safe, rewarding and healthy way is....priceless! Thank you Simone and Grisha, this one has been one of my favs so far!!!

Predation isn't a very commom subject for most Brazilian dog trainers who work in big cities, so I wasn't very familiar to any specific techniques to deal with this problem. Simone's approach seems straightforward and effective, as I have already seen some improvements on my dog's behavior with very little training. I'm looking forward to completing the entire protocol and teaching my students!

The discussion of fear versus prey drive is particularly intriguing. Personally, living with a very fearful reactive dog with a strong prey drive makes me think a lot about how to be able to fulfill his needs without having him experience fear, and at the same time letting him feel some excitement without building up too much cortisol in his system.

This discussion on predation substitution gave me so many more practical tips and strategies than I could have imagined. I immediately started to employ this protocol with clients and not only have we seen results really quickly but the handlers have really enjoyed this work. The buy-in was immediate. Thank you for the easy-to-digest lessons and really thoughtful discussions around the concept of giving dogs other things to do in order to meet their need to chase without the use of corrections. This is a must-take seminar in my book!

I think this protocol has a lot of potential to help dogs. I revisited this course after initially taking part in the longer case studies class almost 2 years ago because I knew I liked what I heard. I now have a client who wants to avoid the social pressure of using aversive devices to train her dog so I want to do everything I can to help them. This has been a great review!
