Does your dog try to chase every animal they see?
Prey drive can be incredibly frustrating, especially when your dog seems to completely forget you exist the second they spot a squirrel, rabbit, bird, or other animal.
Stop Chasing is my step-by-step, reward-based training program for solving unwanted animal chasing.
Using force-free dog training methods, you'll learn how to work with your dog's natural prey drive rather than simply trying to suppress it. I'll teach you how to build the skills your dog needs to make better choices around animals—even when their instinct is telling them to chase.
You'll learn each exercise through clear written instructions, step-by-step photos, and linked video demonstrations.
The goal of this program is simple
Your dog sees an animal…
…and calmly chooses not to chase it.

Just adopted a pup - terrier mix - with the highest prey drive I've seen. I have taught Leave It before but am going to use your method. It is the best, and I will follow it religiously.

It's amazing!).
We are currently working through this program with our 10 month old Welsh Springer Spaniel. We are stuck on "Leave It" using the containers. As soon as we added movement to the "Leave It" command, our boy seems to forget everything he has learned. When we go back to stationary "Leave It" work, he is perfect. We will keep at it but we wish there were a few more "What to do if..." video links to address how to get past points where you can get stuck. Overall, we like the training method and hope we will see some progression soon.
I am new into this program., but already I am seeing improvements in my dog's behavior. What I love best about this program is that it is written for novice dog owners like me. It is so simple and so effective. My girl has a strong prey drive, and while she doesn't go far, I am concerned about the trouble she can get into when she is chasing groundhogs, deer and bear. The real test will be when we "go off leash" and Mr Bear strolls by... but I believe we can do this. I am following the program step by step and not rushing the process. There have been a few side benefits that I have noticed so far as well. My dog is less reactive, calmer and much better around children. Upon reading and learning about unfulfilled prey drive, I believe this program is also going to give me a calmer, well balanced dog and more predictable companion.
