Arizona is home to several venomous creatures, including 13 species of rattlesnakes alone. As a resident and a dog owner, you know how dangerous it can be to encounter one of these animals on a trail hike, or perhaps even in your own backyard. Because your dog is inquisitive by nature, it’s important that you’re both prepared should a situation arise where you have to react. This is why snake avoidance training is such a good idea. By training your dog an avoidance behavior in response to the detection of the scents and smells of rattlesnakes, he or she will become a personal alarm system to their presence, which can help you both avoid a potentially dangerous situation.
What to Expect
To provide the most effective dog training on rattlesnake avoidance in Arizona, Central Pet has partnered with Animal Experts, Inc. to offer a 15-minute training session that could save your dog’s life.
Our goal is to provide a safe, controlled, and authentic training experience for your dog, which includes:
- Learning to recognize (and avoid) rattlesnakes by sight, sound, and scent to prepare them for the many ways in which they might encounter the deadly reptiles
- Walking through a short course that will allow them to come upon snakes in different settings and give them the opportunity to react accordingly (all snakes on-site are muzzled and with a handler)
To ensure your dog is successful, E-collars are used for this training session.
