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 live by mountains, and last year I almost lost my pup to a rattlesnake bite. So after that I signed us up for this training. It's effective, yesterday while hiking Athena smelled a rattler and would not walk by the bush it was under. I listened to her, and as someone else walked past we heard the rattle. Thank you!

Highly recommend! Our Husky loves chasing lizards, grasshoppers, bugs, bunnies, really anything that moves. At first he was interested in the small snake Cody starts with, but quickly he learned to stay away. Cody knows exactly when to use the shock collar and the appropriate level. With the sound and smell our dog knew not to get any closer with then next stage of training. We will be back and recommend anyone who goes hiking or might encounter rattlesnakes.
