Love hitting the trails with your dog but worried about encountering a venomous snake? Join us for a six-week positive reinforcement rattlesnake avoidance training class series.  

Rattlesnake avoidance training focuses on the skills you and your dog need to stay safe in your backyard or hiking the trails. Awareness is important when living in rattlesnake areas and this seminar will teach you and your dog how to respond if you cross paths with a rattler. Using only Positive-Reinforcement methods, we will focus on specific training behaviors, as well as visual, auditory, and olfactory cues specific to snakes. No live snakes or punishment tools are used in this seminar. 

The prerequisite for the class is successful completion of Family Dog 2, instructor approval, or equivalent knowledge and experience.

In this six-week series, you’ll learn:

• How to safely move away from a snake
• How to avoid rattlesnakes using visual, auditory, and olfactory cues
• How to strengthen these behaviors in different environments.
