A litte about me

My name is Simone

I graduated from Heidelberg University where I studied a degree in English, to allow me to teach English in Secondary Schools.

I am also a qualified dog trainer, a member of the Pet Professional Guild, PPG and an associated member of the Pet Dog Trainers of Europe, PDTE. I have learned from and worked with various renowned international dog trainers over the years, which has increased my knowledge in the field. As a professional, I feel it is import to keep up to date with new studies. This is why I took part in the mentoring programme of the European Union “Erasmus for Young Entrepreneurs” and spent a three months job shadowing with Claire Staines from Lothlorien Dog Services in Scotland, to learn from the best in the field of pet dog training. Furthermore, I am undertaking various courses with Canine Principles, a leading knowledge and development school specializing in dog skills for humans.

Predation Substitute Training

Hunting Together!

Harnessing Predatory Chasing in Family Dogs through Motivation-Based Training

Predation Substitute Training - Volume 1

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, follow the step-by-step instructions:

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.
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.

Is hunting your dog’s favourite hobby? Don’t spoil the fun – go hunting together!

Rocket Recall!

Unleash Your Dog's Desire to Return to you through Motivation-Based Training

Predation Substitute Training - Volume 2

Do you dream about having a dog who comes eagerly running back to you when he’s called? Do you feel embarrassed when your dog forces you to scream, shout, and dash after him in public, all while he’s gleefully running away from you? Are you frustrated or worried that the moment something interesting catches his eye, he’ll leave you in the dust with no hope of catching him?

Having a reliable “Rocket Recall” ready to go is one of the biggest challenges for dog owners, but it’s also the most important “life insurance” you can train into your dog.

Believe it or not, a rocket recall can become a reality for you – even if you think there’s no way your dog will ever obey. Every dog, no matter what his past behaviours may have been, can learn to come joyfully and reliably when he’s called.

It all starts with following the easy step-by-step instructions you’ll find in this training program; soon, you’ll see the real-life results of a rocket recall in your dog, whether he’s a young puppy or grown adult dog – simply put, it works!

Throughout this training program with your dog, you will:

Learn and use the Double Recall, a two-part tool that gives your dog the support that he needs to fly back to you, even in the face of his strongest distractions.
Discover need-oriented and functional reinforcers to reward your dog.
Learn how to avoid common dog training mistakes that can spoil your success.
Lock in your dog’s rocket recall response through fun recall games that range from basic to pro-level.
Feel empowered to successfully and independently continue training, even long after you have finished this training program.

As you begin your journey, remember this important note: the rocket recall training program is not about compelling rote obedience from your dog: it’s about tapping in to his natural desire to return to you!

I’m itching to get started, and I hope you (and your pup!) are too…
