This Year's Dog Clinic Dates
Saturday May 17th, and Sunday May 18th
with Patrick Callaghan Enterprises

Dogs are naturally curious, and snakes often prove to be too much of a temptation to avoid. The unique movement and sound of rattlesnakes paired with the devastating effects of their venom poses a serious threat to inquisitive dogs.Venom-related symptoms do not set in immediately after a rattlesnake bite has occurred, so dogs do not associate the pain with the bite. Therefore, even after a dog has been bitten, he or she rarely associates rattlesnakes with negative consequences and no fear is established.

Rattlesnake avoidance training is a safe, humane and proven way to help your dog safely avoid rattlesnake encounters, lowering their probability of being bitten. Patrick Callaghan teaches dogs in three phases to recognize rattlesnakes by sight, sound and scent and learn to avoid the snake and alert others to the snake's presence. During their training session, dogs are introduced to muzzled and defanged rattlesnakes and taught avoidance through the use of a low-level stimulus via remote collar.

• One-on-one sessions are short and focused and Callaghan personally instructs each dog.

• Most dogs are fully trained after one 15 minute session. Training dates at Vintage Kennel Club are Saturday, May 17, 2007 and Sunday, May 18, 2007. The cost is $70 per dog, payable by check, cash or credit card.
