In this conversation, Killian and Darina discuss the fascinating topic of predation and the predatory sequence in dogs. We explore the genetic instinctual need of dogs to hunt and how it originated from their ancestral cousins, wolves. We explain the different stages of the predatory sequence and discuss how certain breeds of dogs have been selectively bred for specific traits related to predation. The conversation highlights the importance of providing dogs with natural outlets to satisfy the modern remnants of their instinctual need to hunt and offers suggestions for enrichment activities. This episode explores the different stages of the predatory sequence in dogs, focusing on orienting, sight, stalk, and chase. A second episode will cover the remaining segments of the sequence.Find out more about Polaris :Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/polarisdogtraining Website: https://polarisdog.training/ Please Note:In the interest of keeping episodes conversational and entertaining we will make broad generalisations that may not reflect you, your situation or your pet.
