Frustrated with Hunting & Chasing?

If you want to eliminate chase-driven leash pulling or running away (without crushing your dog's spirit), I highly recommend this course. Student reviews were glowing!

Conventional training protocols squelch your dog’s natural predatory behaviors through punishment or constantly forcing them to return. Simone’s new Predation Substitute Training protocol skillfully, positively, safely works WITH your dog to meet both of your needs.

During Simone's hugely popular webinar on her Predation Substitute Training protocol, students asked for a case-studies course to watch these effective techniques in action. This is that course. For a limited time, we are including have access to the video from the original webinar in the course materials for this course, or you can purchase it separately.



Recorded Live January and February 2021. Sessions are approximately 1.5-2 hours, including audience Q&A.

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

  • Practical sessions with 2 case studies were done live online.

  • Don’t spoil the fun — go "hunting" together! (Without harming or scaring wildlife).

  • Step-by-step protocol.

  • Includes recordings of demo dog homework sessions.

  • 8 CCPDT dog trainer CEUs, IAABC CEUs pending We are an Approved Education Provider for the CCPDT.

    This is a video course that was recorded live. You'll get to see the whole series, including Simone taking a history in a video chat with the clients and working systematically through training exercises - remotely!

    Bonus offer: if you register today, you'll also get access to a 2-hour presentation video in the course player!

  • Details Make the Difference!

    Simone's step-by-step process focuses on giving your dog a calm, fun outlet for the desire to hunt.

    Positive "Anti-hunt" techniques were developed in Germany after shock collars were banned. I love Simone's approach.

    Includes handouts for the Powerpoint portions of each class (for your own learning).

  • Ask Anything!

    At the end of each session, Simone answered audience questions from dog trainers and people with their own dogs.

    Course students are also eligible to be in the GrishaStewart.com Learner Support Facebook group to continue the conversation.

Simone's course is fantastic! The material is so clear, well laid out and the training is fun. As a trainer I have watched so many webinars and taken endless courses for career development but this one will stand out along with BAT as strongly influencing my own training packages. I already felt confident working with predation cases but this has added even more tools for me to help clients. Thank you.

A practical course addressing the behavior of dogs highly interested and distracted by prey of all kinds. The course content is organized into a digestible format and Simone presents the material with keenness and depth. Each exercise is understandable and purposeful. The exercises are applicable to other issues such as polite leash walking.

Simone's course on predation substitute training fills a huge gap in training here in the U.S. My dog is SAR certified for both wilderness live find and HRD, so anti-predation training is important. Unfortunately, the consensus on my team was "electric collar." I have been fairly successful training without it, but Simone's training is going to take my efforts to a much higher level. I love the methodical way she presents her material and gradually increases the dog's self control. I also appreciate that she is realistic about what is possible. Many thanks to Grisha for hosting this and other fantastic courses!

Having Simone's book "hunting together" this webinare gave me some excellent addition to what she talks about in her book. The isometrics was wonderful! Recognised my dog in Simone's exemple of some dogs who go from green zone to red zone without (hardly) anything in between. Also that pain can really influence the way the dog reacts, even when he's not showing pain. So much to focus on!!! Loved the Q and A's too!!! Thank you Simone for being so positive all the way through, and the students and their dogs!!!

Ahhhh! These techniques are so freeing for both the guardian and the animal. Thank you so much Simone for helping us humans learn to recognize and work with the intrinsic qualities of each animal. Your feedback to the participants was gentle and patient. Your emphasis to not overtrain was most enlightening for me. Thank you!
