Stop Chasing: A Step-By-Step Guide to Solving Dog Prey Drive (DIGITAL VERSION)

Stop your dog’s animal chasing — with a step-by-step, reward-based training program

Does your dog:

• chase squirrels, birds, or cats on walks?
• ignore you (and treats) the moment they spot an animal?
• become fixated and pull toward anything that moves?

You’re not alone — and your dog isn’t being “bad.”

Many dogs have a strong prey drive — the natural instinct to find, chase, and catch animals. While completely normal, this instinct can quickly become frustrating or even dangerous in modern environments.

Here’s the solution

Stop Chasing is a practical, step-by-step training guide that shows you how to solve unwanted chasing while working with your dog’s instincts — not against them.

The program is explained through clear written steps, photos, and linked video tutorials so you can confidently follow it with your dog at home.

The goal of this program is simple

Your dog sees an animal…

…and calmly chooses not to chase it.

This is the same system I’ve used with my own dog and training clients to achieve reliable results around animals.

What you’ll learn

✔ how to teach a reliable “leave it” around animals
✔ how to create controlled practice opportunities that build real-life reliability
✔ how to factor in movement, distance, and distractions
✔ how to safely satisfy your dog’s prey drive
✔ how to train voluntary disengagement — where your dog sees an animal and chooses not to chase

A complete, real-world training system

This guide goes beyond basic obedience.

You’ll learn how to combine:
👉 structured training
👉 instinct fulfillment
👉 progressive difficulty

So your dog can go from:
chasing everything that moves → calmly ignoring animals in real-life situations

Why this method works

Many prey drive training methods focus purely on obedience and control.

But when a dog’s instincts aren’t being met, training often falls apart the moment a squirrel appears.

This guide shows you how to combine fulfillment and training so your results actually hold up in real-life situations.

These methods have helped many of my training clients — and my own dog — safely enjoy walks and hikes again, even with dogs that once chased everything that moved.

What’s included

Stop Chasing is an 86-page guide that includes:

• step-by-step written training instructions
• clear photos demonstrating the exercises
• linked video tutorials showing the training in action

Created by a professional dog trainer
