n2horns Report post Posted June 10, 2019 I am looking to put my lab thru rattlesnake training, he is 12 amd last time was when he was 2 yeara old. My sister has them in her yard and my dog will be spending more time there. Any suggestions for the East Valley? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Riflehunter Report post Posted June 10, 2019 Sportsmans warehouse usually has a trainer come to the store. Had success with 1 lab through them a few years ago. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ThomC Report post Posted June 12, 2019 Kill snake, bring the dog up to the snake, shock the piss out of the dog. Repete. When dog will never go near the snake then you are good to go. Kill snakes in sisters yard. Have a snake fry. 😎 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Catch the snake, milk the venom out of it, defang snake....never mind, just let a professional train your dog. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WalkingBird Report post Posted June 13, 2019 We took our lab to the guy at Sportsmans, I'd take another dog to him no problem Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tjhunt2 Report post Posted June 14, 2019 I took my 9 yr old lab to a snake trainer named Roger Mae from Tonto Basin. I thought he did a good job. This is the third time I've had my dog thru this. Probably a little further than you want to travel. Good luck with your dog. ☺️ TJ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
