Partners Snake Avoidance has successfully trained over 16,000 dogs to avoid the SCENT and SOUND of a Rattlesnake for the past 16 years. It works in 3 parts. 1. We put our own equipment on your pup and use our own experienced handlers to make sure they association is objective as possible. Just between the dog and the snake. 2. We then take your dog to around to several double mesh wire cages in a desert environment, and once they recognize the scent or sound of the rattlesnake we give a very minimal "nick" on an e-collar to train a negative association. 3. At the end, we will give you a recap of what we thought of the session and will recommend a time to come back for your pup's refresher.
