Service Description

Rattlesnake Training – Private Class (6 Weeks) Held in Parker, Colorado If you are interested in booking your private course training - please reach out with your preferred start date so you can book. You need to buy the 5 session (in-person) training package to redeem your lessons. $419 Join me for this unique 6-week class where I teach dogs rattlesnake avoidance using reward-based methods! This course is designed to keep both dogs and humans safe by turning the sight, scent, and sound of a rattlesnake into cues for a reliable recall and alert behavior. You’ll also learn about snake safety, rattlesnake behavior, and how to build clear, structured communication with your dog in the presence of snake-related stimuli. Unlike traditional aversive-based methods, this course does not rely on e-collars or fear. Pain-based rattlesnake training can backfire - causing fear, confusion, or even panic when your dog encounters a snake in real life. Instead, we focus on helping your dog remain clear-headed and connected to you during potentially dangerous situations. Online access is included for participants who want the additional content outside of class or as a refresher. Once enrolled, you have access for 365 days to the online content.
