About Rattlesnake Ready
Arizona's #1 realistic and thorough snake avoidance training for dogs. Live, muzzled rattlesnakes are used along with other items to train your dog to avoid the scent, sight, and sound of real rattlesnakes - and we do it right in your backyard! Both clinics and in-home lessons available year around and at a very reasonable cost. Located in north Phoenix but serving the whole greater Phoenix area (and beyond!) We are extremely knowledgeable in both rattlesnakes and dogs alike. Thousands of dogs successfully trained since 2013. See website for more details.

We were in the PHX area, on holiday from the UK, and contacted Cody having found his website - and eager to see, and learn more about rattlesnakes. As a family of four we booked a one-hour private visit to his facility and it was genuinely one of the absolute highlights of the holiday. And our kids, 11 & 9, loved it too. Cody's colleague spent a full hour with us, showing us the collection, answering our questions, and even live-feeding a snake in front of us (just wow!). It's an incredibly clean, professional and safe environment, and we can fully see why local dog owners would come here for the training they offer as the main side to their business. A huge thank you for letting us visit. We wouldn't hesitate to come back next time we're in the PHX area, especially as Cody is extending his collection all the time. This is a true FIVE STAR visitor attraction if you have an interest in rattlensakes. Just remember to get in contact and make a reservation to attend. You can't just show up...
Our dogs were professionally trained by Cody and Kate, super awesome training and great service for our dogs!!
Just had my German Shepherd, Rocco, re-checked by Cody with Rattlesnake Ready. Cody is knowledgeable, thorough and professional. I can’t stress enough how important rattlesnake training is for your dog! And having Rocco with me on a hike as reinforcement for snake awareness is priceless. Thank you, Cody and Rattlesnake Ready!
The class was learning about handling venomous reptiles and Cody's facility was perfect. He and Logan were so professional and managed us awkward students wonderfully. I would highly recommend him.
