Durango Kennel Club Rattlesnake Avoidance Clinic – Saturday September 20, 2025

The Durango Kennel Club will be hosting our next rattlesnake avoidance clinic on Saturday, September 20, 2025, at the Sky Ute/Ignacio Fairgrounds. If you have a dog that hasn’t been through the training, registration for the clinic is now open on PerfDog.com - https://app.perfdog.com/event/an9ox8CjMQYLWmnrH. First time testing registration is $100 per dog. Please see the attached flyer for additional information.

Once again, we will be offering a retest for any dog that went through the training at one of our past clinics. The retest consists of exposing the dog to the rattlesnake without the e-collar to test their reaction (avoidance or non-avoidance). If the dog fails to avoid the rattlesnake, you will be able to repeat the initial training with the e-collar. The cost for a retest is $50 and includes retraining if necessary.
