The avoidance training teaches dogs to recognize and stay away from the scent, sound, and sight of rattlesnakes. The training team uses a remote training collar with a low level stimulus adjusted to each individual dog and hooded rattlesnakes to train your dog to avoid rattlesnakes.
Rattlesnake Avoidance Training is conducted in a safe, humane, controlled environment ensuring the safety of your dog, as well as the safety of the rattlesnakes. Every precaution is taken to make your experience with Rattlesnake Avoidance Training a positive one for you and your dog.
This training is an effective, preventive measure. It is not a guarantee. In order to learn a strong avoidance behavior, we recommend several repetitions of the training. The first year, "Initial training", is when the dog learns intense avoidance of rattlesnakes. The second year, "Maintenance training", is what really cements this behavior within your dog. To ensure maximum benefit from this training, maintenance training should be done the following year after initial training.
