In this episode I talk about why your Border Collie chases everything: bikes, joggers, other dogs, cars. And why the usual fixes so many owners try just don't get to the root of it. We cover why prey drive can actually develop and get stronger over time, why your dog isn't being stubborn when they ignore you outside, and why tiring them out or using high value treats misses the point entirely. Most importantly, I talk about where the training actually has to start and what needs to be in place before you ask your dog for anything else.


🎙 This is part one of two. Part two is coming next week and covers the training myth that most people swear by, and why it's working against you.


Want my help building this with your Border Collie? I'm running a free live training event 15–19 July where I'll show you hands-on exactly how to start building focus and engagement from scratch.
