A note from one dog mum to another
.png)
I used to be the woman at the park pretending everything was fine while my stomach was in knots.
My first dog, Tonks, would take off the second I unclipped the leash. And I mean gone. Off into her own world like I didn't exist. Like I was just the person who drove/walked her there.
I need to tell you something.
I loved that dog so much. And I know she loved me back. But off-leash? There was no connection. No cooperation. Just me, calling her name over and over, watching other guardians give me that look.
You know the one.
The "why can't she control her dog" look. The look that made me want to disappear. The look I can still feel in my chest when I think about it.
I tried everything they told me to try.
Be the alpha. Be more assertive. Stop letting her walk all over you. You're too soft.
Too soft.
As if loving my dog and wanting connection instead of control was a character flaw.
So I tried to be tougher. More commanding. More "in charge."
And it felt wrong. Like I was wearing a costume that didn't fit. Like I was apologizing for who I actually am just to get my dog to listen.
It didn't work anyway.
What it did do was damage our connection even more. And one day, that broken recall put her life at risk.
That's when everything changed.
When I adopted Kona, my second dog, she didn't trust humans. At all.
And I knew - I knew in my gut - that "alpha pack leader" energy would push her further away, not bring her closer.
But I didn't know what else to do.
I remember sitting on the floor, knees pulled to my chest, crying. Thinking: I am not enough for this dog. I don't have the tools. I don't know how to reach her.
And then I did what I always do when I'm lost.
I got up. Dusted myself off. And I started reading. Researching. Learning.
I stopped asking "how do I make my dog listen?" and started asking "what am I doing that's breaking our communication?"
I looked at myself - my body language, my energy, my movement, my nervous system - not just at what I expected from her.
And slowly, everything shifted.
Here's what I figured out:
Almost all mainstream dog training was designed by men. The posture. The energy. The "show them who's boss" philosophy.
It works for them. It comes naturally to them.
But we're not men.
We're nurturers. Connectors. We communicate through intuition and emotion and the subtle shifts in our bodies that change with our moods, our cycles, our lives.
That's not weakness. That's our superpower.
The softness I was told to fix? It's actually what builds the kind of bond that makes a dog want to come back.
I created both programs, Beyond Treats Recall and REAListic RECALL because I needed it first.
I needed training that worked with who I actually am - not training that asked me to become someone harder, louder, more "dominant."
If you've ever stood at the park feeling like a failure...
If you've ever been told you're too soft, too emotional, not assertive enough...
If you've ever wondered why this seems so easy for everyone else...
It's not you. It's the instruction manual you were given.
This is a different one.
Written by a woman, for women. For the soft ones. The ones who got a dog because they wanted love and adventure and a companion - not a soldier to command.
You don't have to become someone you're not to have a dog who comes back.
You just have to learn how to lead like you.
Iulia
You're Not Bad at Training Your Dog. You've Just Been Given the Wrong Instructions.
And the biggest lie? That treats will fix everything. Including your dog's safety.
Here's what they told you:
"If your dog doesn't come when called, you just need better treats."
So you upgraded. Chicken. Then cheese. Then that freeze-dried liver stuff that costs more per pound than your own groceries.
And it worked! ...for like, three days.
Or maybe it never worked at all.
My dog Kona? She literally spit freeze-dried liver onto my shoes and just... left. Ran off to do her thing like I wasn't even there.
I love her. Obviously. But also: KONA. COME ON.
And look, I'm a dog mum too. I get it. For me, recall isn't about having a "well-behaved dog" or whatever. It's about SAFETY. Like, actual safety. The kind where I don't hold my breath every time I unclip the leash.
Here's what nobody told you:
Most dogs? Not actually that food-motivated once you step outside.
There's actual research on this - brain scans showing that loads of dogs respond MORE to their human's voice, praise, and touch than they do to food.
Which means you've been trying to pay your dog in a currency they don't even care about.
No wonder it's not working.
Here's what else nobody told you: almost all mainstream recall training was designed by men. The "be the alpha" energy. The commanding voice. The posture of dominance.
It works for them. It's natural for them.
But you're not a man. And trying to train like one has been making you feel like a failure at something that was never designed for you in the first place.
Beyond Treats Recall teaches you a different way. One that works with your natural strengths - intuition, connection, presence - not against them.
THE STATE–BODY–DOG FORMULA
You've been handed a megaphone ("say it louder, say it happier") when what you really needed was a completely different approach.
Beyond Treats Recall teaches you the State–Body–Dog formula: three shifts that change everything about how your dog experiences coming back to you.
STATE: How your nervous system broadcasts to your dog before you even open your mouth.
BODY: The subtle movement patterns that make your dog want to orbit back to you.
DOG: What YOUR specific dog actually values - and how to turn that into recall fuel that doesn't disappear when you forget the treats.
This isn't another drill. It's not "say it happier" or "use better treats."
It's the panel of controls you were never given - the one that explains why recall has felt like guesswork until now.
Inside Beyond Treats Recall, you'll learn exactly which shifts to make and watch your dog start choosing you in a completely different way.
You Don't Want "Obedient." You Want a Life Together.
You didn't sign up for dog mum life just to perfect recalls in the kitchen.
You signed up for the real stuff:
Long, soul-filling walks where you both come home pleasantly exhausted and weirdly proud of yourselves. Trails, beaches, fields, city streets and random "let's just see where this goes" detours that feel possible, not terrifying. Those sunset moments where your dog checks in with you, and you get that quiet "this is exactly what I wanted" feeling in your chest.
That's the variety, the "out of the ordinary" you crave: more than one safe route, more than one safe scenario, more than "we only walk where I'm not scared you'll vanish."
Recall is the safety net that makes those days possible.
What Actually Changes:
You stop avoiding the park with the "good" dogs because you're embarrassed.
You stop planning your routes around "what if she doesn't come back."
You start saying yes to the beach, the trail, the new place you've been wanting to explore.
You feel your shoulders drop when you unclip the leash - because you know she'll come back. Not because you have chicken in your pocket. Because she wants to.
You catch another guardian watching you and your dog, and instead of shame, you feel quiet pride.
And yes, let's be honest - you also want the quiet flex at the park.
You know that guardian-dog duo everyone low-key watches?
The dog roams, sniffs, lives. Guardian calls once. Dog turns and comes back like it's the easiest decision in the world. No treat-waving. No yelling. No chaos.
That's not luck. That's a bond.
And it's absolutely okay to want that:
You want to feel like what you've built with your dog is special, not fragile. You want to be seen (and maybe quietly admired) for the connection, not just for your snack arsenal. You want to walk into any space with your dog and feel like, "We're that pair. We've got this."
Beyond Treats Recall is built to help you become that duo, without turning you into a drill sergeant.

TRAINING THAT STILL FEELS LIKE LOVE
Because That's What Training Is All About: Connection & Love With Our Dogs
You didn't get a dog to become a walking dispenser.
You got a dog because you wanted love, connection, and mutual "I'll always be by your side no matter what" energy.
This program protects that.
Recall here is about:
-
"Come back to your safe person," not "perform or no reward"
-
Your voice, posture and presence becoming the signal for safety and relief
-
Every practice rep layering more trust, not more tension
Your dog learns that you are the constant that makes sense, no matter what's going on around them.
GIVING YOUR DOG THE LIFE THEY'D PICK AGAIN
And Again. And Again.
(Because You Definitely Would Pick Another Thousand Lifetimes With Them)
Deep down, you don't just want your dog to be safe.
You want them to have a good life. A big life.
You want to contribute to their life with love and meaning, just like they contribute to yours.
You want your dog-human bond to make the world a better place.
Reliable, treat-optional recall lets you give them:
-
More freedom without chaos
-
More "yes, let's go there" and fewer "sorry, it's too risky"
-
More shared memories that feel like a story, not a loop
This is one of the clearest ways you give back to the dog who trusts you with their whole life.
WHAT THIS WOULD NORMALLY COST
Investment & Timing
🐕 1:1 dog trainer session: ~$150-$250, focused on commands, not connection
⏰ Traditional recall programs: $300+ and months of homework you don't have time for
🎓 Group classes: $200-$400 for 6 weeks, plus commute time and treat expenses
Full price for Beyond Treats Recall: $197
But you're not paying full price. Not even close.
Why the Sliding Scale Exists
I price this way because I know what it's like to find something at the right moment and not be able to afford it.
The earlier you decide, the less you pay - not because I'm trying to rush you, but because I want to reward the dog mums who trust themselves enough to say yes without overthinking it for two weeks.
SLIDING SCALE JANUARY PRICING

Why the Deadline is Real
I run Beyond Treats Recall as a closed enrollment program because I want to be available to answer questions and support the dog mums inside.
When doors close on January 25th, they stay closed until I reopen later in 2025 - and when I do, the price starts at $197 minimum. No sliding scale. No "get in early" discount.
If you're reading this and the countdown is ticking, this is genuinely your best opportunity.
Not because I'm trying to pressure you. But because I don't want you to come back in three months, see a higher price, and wish you'd trusted yourself today.
If "If I forget the treats, I'm screwed" feels way too accurate… that's your nudge.
You're not just buying lessons.
You're choosing safety, soul-filling days outside, and a bond that doesn't collapse when the treats stay on the counter.
When you step into Beyond Treats Recall, you step up for shelter dogs too: ADOPT THAT MONSTER donates $3 from your purchase to feeding dogs in Romanian shelters.
Real Dog Mums. Real Dogs.

Hi, I’m Iulia.
I'm a certified dog trainer and member of the Association of Canine Professionals in the UK. I've spent 8+ years specializing in reactive and high-drive dogs using positive reinforcement methods - because real learning happens without fear or force.
But honestly? My qualifications aren't why this program exists.
Beyond Treats Recall was born from my own mess.
My dog, Kona, didn't care about treats. Like, at all. And everything I'd been taught depended on them. So I had to figure out a different way - one that didn't rely on having the right snacks in my pocket at the right moment.
What I discovered changed how I train, how I teach, and how I show up with my dogs.
This program is research-backed and experience-tested.
But more than that, it's built by someone who's been exactly where you are: standing at the park, heart pounding, wondering why this is so hard when everyone else makes it look so easy.
I get it. I've lived it. And I made this for us.
When I'm not obsessing over dogs, you'll find me on my yoga mat, escaping into a spicy romantasy novel, or drinking coffee with sprinkles (yes, sprinkles) while watching Hawaii Five-0 on the couch. Because a little island vibe goes a long way.
You don't need to "alpha" your dog. You just need to lead like you - calm, clear, and connected.
Iulia
from brilliant dog mums just like you who were brave and said "heck yes!" to making that shift!

🔥 Your Burning Questions: Answered!
"I don't have time for another program."
I know. You're juggling work, life, maybe kids, definitely a dog who needs walking regardless of how your day went.
That's exactly why this is audio.
You don't sit down and "do" this program. You listen while you walk. While you commute. While you're cooking dinner or folding laundry.
Each episode is 15-25 minutes. That's one walk. One commute. One load of dishes.
You already have the time. This just fills it differently.
"My dog is genuinely stubborn/untrainable/a special kind of chaos."
I hear this a lot. And I get why you believe it.
But here's what I've learned after 8 years of working with "difficult" dogs: there's no such thing as an untrainable dog. There are only dogs who haven't been communicated with in a way that makes sense to them.
Your dog isn't broken. The method was.
Beyond Treats Recall works with who your dog actually is - their real motivators, their real needs - not some imaginary "food-motivated" dog from a training manual.
If your dog is stubborn, they're actually perfect for this. It means they have opinions. Preferences. A personality. We're going to work with that.
"I've already tried everything."
Real talk?
You probably haven't. What you've tried is different versions of the same thing: word + treat + hope.
And when that didn't work, you maybe bought a course or watched some videos. Started strong. Tried it once or twice. Didn't see instant results. Life got busy. The course sat there unopened.
I'm not judging. I've done that too. We all have.
But here's what's different about this:
-
It's audio - which means you'll actually consume it because it fits your life
-
It's not about drilling commands - it's about shifting how you show up
-
You'll feel changes on your very first walk, not after 6 weeks of homework
This isn't "everything" again. This is something different.
"What if it doesn't work for my specific dog?"
The State-Body-Dog formula isn't a one-size-fits-all script. It's a framework that you customize to your dog.
We start with YOUR nervous system (because your dog reads your energy before they hear your words).
Then we work on YOUR body language (because how you move matters more than what you say).
Then we figure out what YOUR specific dog actually values - not what dogs "should" value.
It works for your dog because it's built around your dog.
"I can't afford it right now."
I understand. Truly.
But let me offer some perspective:
One session with a 1:1 trainer who'll tell you to use better treats: $150-$250.
One more month of buying "high-value" treats that work indoors and fail outdoors: $40+.
Beyond Treats Recall is $67-$147 depending on when you join. One payment. Lifetime access. No ongoing treat budget required.
This isn't an expense. It's the thing that stops the other expenses.
"What if I buy it and don't follow through?"
Then nothing changes. That's the honest answer.
But here's why I think you will:
This isn't a 47-module video course that requires you to set aside "training time" you don't have. It's audio that goes in your ears while you're already doing the thing you need to do: walking your dog.
You don't need motivation. You just need earbuds.
And honestly? You're here, reading this whole page. That tells me you're not someone who gives up easily.
You're someone who's been trying the wrong approach and blaming yourself for it.
Give yourself something that actually fits your life and watch what happens.
"Will an audio program really work?"
Yes - and here's why it works better:
Video courses require you to stop, sit, watch, take notes, then go try to remember what you learned while your dog is losing their mind at a squirrel.
Audio goes with you. You learn while you walk. You hear a tip, you try it immediately, you feel the shift in real time.
Plus, you can relisten whenever you need a refresher. It's like having a trainer in your pocket - except one who gets what it's like to be a woman in a world of "be the alpha" advice.
"What if my partner/family doesn't support this?"
You don't need their permission to invest in yourself and your dog.
But also: they're going to notice when walks stop being stressful. When you come home calm instead of frazzled. When the dog actually comes back.
Results are the best argument. Get them first, explain later.
"When do I get access?"
Instantly.
As soon as you check out, you'll receive your private podcast link. Works on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or whatever you already use.
(Tech sometimes takes 10 seconds, sometimes up to 2 hours to sync between platforms. If you don't receive your link within 24 hours, email me at hello@adoptthatmonster.com and I'll personally sort it out.)
"Refunds?"
This is a digital, instant-access program. All sales are final.
I tell you this not to be harsh, but to be honest: this program works if you engage with it. I want you to join when you're genuinely ready to listen and try, not "just in case."
If you're on the fence, that's okay. But don't buy hoping you can return it. Buy because you're ready to do something different.
Your dream of a perfectly connected, off-leash adventure buddy is closer than you think.
Stop wondering and start transforming.
