Robinson Dog Training Phoenix Rattle Snake Aversion

Single Session
$129 additional dog's $50 each

Every year dogs are bitten by rattlesnakes which is potentially fatal.

A rattle snake bite disrupts the integrity of the blood vessels. Combined with the change of normal blood clotting mechanisms, this can lead to dramatic swelling, with up to a third of the total blood circulation being lost into the tissues in a matter of hours. Sometimes, if the swelling persists despite anti-venom treatment, so much blood is lost from circulation that the dog dies of shock.

Some people mistakenly believe that rattlers are active only during the hottest hours. Actually, they often rest during the heat of the day, sheltered from the sun. Like their predominantly rodent prey, these snakes are instead most active during the evening, night and morning hours.

It's a good idea to keep your pet on a leash when hiking or exploring rattle snake habitat, so that if you hear a rattle, you can keep your pet away from the snake. If your dog is bitten by a rattle snake do not use ice or other cold applications and do not apply a tourniquet as these may increase the dog's anxiety and cause him to struggle, making the effects of the snake bite worse. Instead, keep your dog as calm and quiet as possible and drive immediately to the nearest veterinarian.

Due to the number of rattle snakes in Arizona I am offer rattle snake aversion training to give you a little peace of mind knowing that your dog will avoid the potentially deadly snakes. The training will be done in your home and should be redone every year or two to ensure the memory is still fresh in the dogs mind. I will bring over a rattle snake and the necessary equipment and it will only take one session to complete.
