Solutions to Your Prey Drive Challenges
A deep dive workshop on living with Romanian & overseas rescue dogs with high prey drive, including simple strategies for addressing this behaviour.
Workshop Summary
Don’t let your dog’s high prey drive have you tearing your hair out!
Join me as I welcome the fabulous Tracey McLennan MSc who will be coming along to present a workshop for us on solutions to your dog’s prey drive challenges.
Tracey has lived with high prey drive dogs for over 20 years and specialises in working with clients who are struggling to achieve progress with their own dog’s prey driven behaviours. Tracey will be doing a deep dive with us on the instinctive, physiological, & psychological components of a dog’s prey drive and how understanding these elements can help us find simple, easy and effective ways to train our dogs, so their prey drive is not a problem anymore.
Prey drive is part of the template for a dog, especially our very natural world, highly instinctive Romanian & overseas rescue dogs, and I know there are many of you who struggle with this problem. Tracey is passionate about all things prey drive! Helping guardians understand it from the Dog’s Point of View and with this knowledge, be able to implement simple strategies that can be integrated into daily life to help minimize & resolve the problems our high prey drive dogs can present us with.
During the workshop Tracey will be sharing how to:
🐕 Understand your dog’s prey drive on a deeper level.
🐕 Become someone your dog chooses to hang out with on walks, instead of roaming the countryside chasing furries, big or small.
🐕 Know how to tap into your dog’s natural instincts & build a beautifully strong connection that withstands high level prey distractions.
Inside you will find a recording of the live workshop event plus a selection of supporting resources to help you implement the information shared by Tracey during the presentation.
I'm super excited to run this workshop for you as I know this is a common challenge for many adopters.

Meesh Masters
Meesh Masters is the founder and business owner at The Dog's Point of View and specialises in working with Romanian & Overseas Rescue dogs, providing educational resources for their adopters via remote one to one consultations, home study courses, webinars, training programs and her popular Adopters Coaching Group - The number one resource anywhere on the internet for Romanian and Overseas rescue dog information and support.
After becoming involved with Romanian Rescue dogs in 2015, both as a support advisor to new adopters and a fosterer herself, she was led to look deeper into the thinking, feeling, emotional depths of these dogs when things began feeling different about them.
She soon realised how the Romanian dogs were different to British born dogs, that their genetics and bloodline, being from street dogs and dogs that had evolved through more natural selection, meant they seemed to be more in tune with their instinctive nature's. She went on to learn that she needed to adjust the ways she interacted with and worked with these dogs, to accommodate their more instinctive and cautious characteristics. It became very evident that these dogs responded differently to 'training' in the conventional sense at times.
And so it became her passion to share everything she was learning, and is still learning, about the Romanian Dog's Point of View with as many adopters as possible. Today she is Patron of two Romanian Rescue Charities, Cloud K9 Rescue and Annie's Trust, she is also advisor to various other rescue organisations. She runs a course for qualified trainers, The Romanian Rescue Pro Trainers program, to help other canine professionals understand more about working with Romanian & foreign rescue dogs and their families, as many of them can be quite complex compared to working with British dogs. She has also launched an invaluable education & resource program for rescue organisations rehoming Romanian & Eastern European dogs, to help them & their volunteers to understand how to correctly support their adopters if they encounter basic problems.
Meesh is also now a certified Dynamic Dog Practitioner which qualifies her to complete detailed assessments of dogs in the areas of biomechanics, gait, movement & posture to determine whether there are any potential pain or discomfort issues that could be contributing to behaviour. This is an invaluable qualification to have given that her entire business focuses solely on supporting and working with adopters and canine professionals of predominantly Romanian but also other European street, rescue & shelter dogs. With the poor start many of these dogs have in life, along with the potential for them to have sustained untreated injuries, abuse and trauma prior to adoption, being able to assess for pain in a totally hands off, non-intrusive way is often the only way they can be assessed.
