Do you wish your dog would listen to you on walks, rather than running after squirrels? Tired of getting left in the dust if a cat shows up nearby? Concerned that your dog’s prey drive is coming between the two of you? Conventional training protocols stifle your dog’s natural predatory behaviours through punishing or constantly forcing them to return.
These restrictive protocols work against your dog’s nature and against what they want most: to go for a hunt!
Predation is an inner need that makes your dog happy. Suppressing those natural urges is like putting an airtight lid on a boiling pot. Eventually, that pressure needs to escape, and without a proper outlet, it’s probably going to get messy. Wouldn’t you rather use your dog’s predation motivation to improve your training and even grow your relationship with your dog?
Predation Substitute Training (PST) is a motivation-based and need-oriented training program, designed to stop uncontrolled predatory chasing and to provide safe outlets for your dog’s natural drive. Instead of making discipline the nagging factor that spoils the fun, this training system will help you grow as a team and go hunting together!
In this training program, you’ll learn:What is predation?Why does your dog love to hunt?Why is predatory behaviour so hard to interrupt?To stop your dog’s predatory chasing and see real-life results, just follow the step-by-step instructions:Prevention: Structure your walks to set your dog up for successPredation Substitute Tools: Help your dog control their urge to chase in a healthy way when you meet wildlifePredation Substitute Games: Discover new ways to express predatory energy in a safe, controlled environmentSafety net: Build a strong “emergency cue” to immediately interrupt predatory chasing.Is hunting your dog’s favourite hobby?

From the Publisher
Are you tired of being left in a cloud of dust by your dog as soon as a squirrel appears at the side of the path?
Predation Substitute Training
For dogs that love to chase wildlife
Every dog has an instinctive need to hunt. Most training methods that aim to control predatory behaviour use force and punishment to work against a dog’s hunting desires. The result: your relationship with your dog suffers and you become a spoilsport!
But it doesn’t have to be this way! You can also use your dog’s natural predatory instinct to strengthen your relationship and boost the success of your training.
Predation Substitution Training is a need-orientated training protocol that encourages you to harness your dog’s natural hunting instinct in a fun and enjoyable way to allow you to successfully manage it safely.
Start your training like a pro – with more fun! Mutual Understanding: Learn what motivates your dog. Force-Free Training: Utilise your dog’s natural predatory urges! Have Fun Together: Get to know fun and effective training games! Teach An Emergency Cue: Reliably interrupt dangerous situations without punishment.
Build a stronger bond
Predation Substitute Training allows you to build up a deep trust between you and your dog through play. Instead of punishing them when they show undesirable behaviour, you can experience individual parts of the hunting sequence together with your dog. Shared emotions lead to a stronger bond.
Use game-based training methods
Training should be fun for you and your dog! The Predation Substitute Training I have introduced is based on your dog’s predatory motivation: You use their natural urges to hunt and turn this into a game with you. The training will be fun for both of you!
Communicate effectively
Communication with your dog is crucial for effective training. With game-based Predation Substitute Training, you will improve communication with your dog and refine the language you share. This will also help you with further training in other areas too!
